Let’s Catch Up I have been on vacation and then off to shoot Iowa and Wisconsin episodes of Bizarre Foods America that will air in November/December. But I’m back and there is a ton to talk about so I will try to practice restraint and not overwhelm. Let’s catch up on a few things. The… Read More →

Love a big, juicy steak? Try this alternative. Ox heart is one of the most underrated cuts of meat. Period. It’s a huge muscle, and makes for an extremely tender stead.
