This is my version of the Cataldo family’s famous “Mom’s Sauce” recipe. I tried it when I was shooting an episode of Family Dinner. Generations of Cataldos have grown up in their family pork store in Massapequa, NY. Every Monday, the family gathers to catch up, let the kids play together and enjoy a traditional family… Read More →
Lisa Donovan’s Slab Buttermilk Pie Recipe By Lisa Donovan I developed my buttermilk chess pie when I was working with Sean Brock as his pastry chef as a nod to both of our deep Appalachian roots. It became a huge staple in my career and social life—I basically couldn’t show up to a picnic without… Read More →
I don’t know about you, but September always feels like a mid-year reset. I find myself prioritizing things that keep me grounded– both in body and mind. Books do a great job of this. From memoirs to cookbooks (yes, I sit down and read some cover to cover), and even a zine, here’s what I’m…
It’s almost back-to-school time. After three months of loose schedules, late bedtimes, and long days at the pool, the day after Labor Day feels like a natural reset. To ease the transition, I always look to gear that makes mealtime (and life) fun and as stress-free as possible. Here are some of my favorite ways…
Father’s Day is June 19, 2022. What does a dad want for Father’s Day? Good food and quality time with the people I love most. It’s that simple. I’m the kind of guy who loves doing the cooking for any occasion, and Father’s Day is no exception. With that in mind, I’ve highlighted some food-centric…

It probably won’t surprise you to learn that I have a lot of different olive oils. I’m always trying new ones, and the four listed here get used so often I just keep them out on my counter. It helps that they’re all absolutely stunning to look at– I don’t always need my food to…
The Easiest Way to Cook Asparagus By Andrew Zimmern It’s springtime and asparagus is abundant in the markets. I like to toss it in a wok with an umami-rich black bean sauce, serve it as a salad with poached lobster, blitz it into a springy pesto and shave ribbons of it for classic fettuccine primavera.… Read More →
Bitter Greens Citrus Salad By Andrew Zimmern This is what I call my “house” salad, the one I serve most often that pairs well with almost anything. It’s a base of bitter greens, like radicchio, frisee and endive, topped with grapefruit and orange slices, red onion, fresh dill and a slightly sweet citrus vinaigrette to… Read More →
Mother’s Day is May 8, 2022. I’m always a little hesitant to celebrate moms by giving them kitchen stuff. The last thing a mom needs, especially on Mother’s Day, is feeling compelled to be in service to others. Most moms do that all day, every day. I think some of the best gifts are ones…
Every home cook needs a few quality knives. My go-to knives come from Shun. I have an embarrassing amount of them, but for your average person, I think a good chef’s knife, paring knife, kitchen shears and a serrated knife can do just about any job. Fun extras include a blunt nose nakiri for vegetables (primarily);…
As a lifelong outdoorsman and chef, I’m thrilled to marry my passion for hunting and fishing with cooking over fire. That’s why I think my new show, Wild Game Kitchen on Outdoor Channel, is some of my best work. I keep asking myself why? I’ve come to realize it’s because I am so excited about…
