French Onion Spatchcock. You spatchcock seasoned chicken, and then once you sear the skin, you build the French onion soup flavors in the skillet with onions and stock and butter. And then add the chicken, tent it with foil and braise it for at least 40 mins covered. Then blast it with the broiler for a few mins. And boom.
You get a spatchcock chicken smothered in caramelized onions and with a French oniony sauce that you can make a gravy out of.

Spicy Kimchi Sriracha. Didn’t even think I’d ever say that sentence again out loud. This had the heat of sriracha with the funk and bite of kimchi and it’s a perfect balance. I’m way too into it.
Thank you 🔥❤️

Okay I want to open this up for debate/discussion/strongly worded letters.
What’s the best order for a burger? For this one, I did burger sauce on both pieces of TOASTED BUNS, lettuce on the bottom, then the patty(s), then tomato, pickle, caramelized onions and top bun.
What’s your go-to order for a dank burger? Also this one def gave me Krabby Patty vibes.

(21+) UGH! So sent me this bottle of tequila blanco. Naturally I had to make a lil cocktail for these hot summer nights. I give you, THE BLOODY SUNRISE
Tequila, lime juice, OJ, crushed cherries and black cherry seltzer. SO AMAZING.
The tequila itself is incredible! Additive free, made an an 86-year old distillery. It’s smooth enough to have alone on ice!
Thank you to for sending me this and I HIGHLY recommend y’all find a bottle of this as a soon as possible.

Hand cut fries with a Turkey bacon Swiss club. I’ve been craving a diner club. But this def hit 🫠😩🥹.
Also I have been arguing the club sandwich validity to .basically.living for years. Unsuccessfully. So having it finally enter our homes and mouths? This was a victory that sparked more joy than Marie Kondo’s folding techniques.

Book for the best mixes and spritzes known to humanity. Even on this wet night at it was so vibey and perfect.
Also I’m such a slt for spice so the chili did me in.

Reason 965 why you don’t need nonstick anything. back me up on this:
Cast iron pancakes leave a beautiful color and amazing crisp to the exterior and get hit enough to quickly cook the inside. Leaving you with fluffy interiors and a gorgeous exterior. Just like me, BOOOOOM.
Seriously though,

Once again, BROIL YOUR PIZZA.
Cold fermented pizza dough with hand shredded mozz and some black olives. Not all olive slices are created equal so don’t @ me about the distribution.
This took up an entire half sheet pan, and it was t h i c k in the nice way.

Sometimes I make really nice looking platters. Other times, I make this. This is not meant for aesthetic. This is meant for those poor unfortunate souls like us that say “it’s been a goddamn week, I DON’T care about walnuts or fruit. Give me all the meat and cheese with crispy S**t. Now.”

If you’re going to get a chopped cheese, go to a bodega in the Bronx and get a real one. Don’t listen to the YouTuber from Texas who claims their recipe is just as good. IT AIN’T. Bronx Bodega Benefits 101

Okay so I really really really want to write an entire mini recipe e book on “Ramen Hacks for the Hangry”.
With a pack of dried noodles, basic fridge and pantry items and a damn bowl, I now have SO many recipes for enhancing and elevating inexpensive ramen like this.
I think one big misconception with chefs and cooks is that they always eat well. Let me tell you first hand, absolutely fu***ng not.
I don’t want people thinking that they aren’t able to make an amazing creation because they don’t have expensive ingredients. Nothing could be further from the truth or reality. There’s an old saying “it’s not the size it’s how you use it” and I know there’s probably hundreds of my followers going “HELL YES BRÜTHËR”, but there is truth in that concept itself (to a point)
You can have something very unassuming, simple even. Considered to be lower tier, and you can easily have it give you more pleasure than you ever before knew….
This is taking a very steep dive off a cliff so let me stop now.
Tell me if you’d support e-recipes❤️
