I’m from Ohio. When I moved to Philly seven years ago, the words “What the hell is scrapple!?” fell out of my mouth, quickly followed by an “ew, are you kidding me!?” I fancy myself pretty open-minded about food, but a pork leftover mash-up loaf just didn’t sound appealing to me. Over the years, I…
I don’t think it’s any secret that I’m a fan of beer. So I don’t think it should come to a big surprise to any of you that I’m going to be doing a lot more cooking with beer. What IS a fun surprise is that I’m going to be writing recipes for DrinkingCraft.com! It’s…
I love baseball. I can get behind basketball. But I don’t love football. What I DO love about football is the excitement, friendly rivalries and massive amounts of beer and junk food that surround football fandom. So I can get behind the football culture, regardless of whether or not I give a shit about the…
The best way to spread Christmas cheer is baking lots and drinking beer. Or at least that’s how I do it, because believe-you-me, you do not want to hear me sing Christmas carols. One of my favorite holiday movies is Elf. Instant classic. Yeah, I went there. It’s heartwarming and adorable with funny moments and…

This column originally ran on HoboTrashcan.com. About half a year ago, I didn’t even know “Who” wasn’t The Doctor’s last name. Once I started watching the show, it took me under two months to make my way through all of the modern episodes. (Time to start the old ones!) I knew once I got going…
If you’ve looked through Bacon & Legs, you’ll have noticed that one of the things I love doing is making grilled cheese sandwiches. They have a special place in my heart, right there in that one artery, clogging it up. And I never want to stop making them. But you can’t just make the same…
This recipe originally ran on HoboTrashcan.com. Did ya see Thor: The Dark World this weekend? Didja? I figured a good chunk of you would have. Even if you aren’t into The Avengers, Marvel or comic books in general, Chris Hemsworth draws you in. He could be a weapon in world domination if he fell into…
I have to say, I’ve never seen nor read Charlotte’s Web. But I couldn’t resist a fun title that alludes to eating something that you all love so much. Not to mention the double meaning of the word fall. BOOM. Oh wait, did you actually want to hear about the food itself and not my…
