I fancy myself a fan of good, hearty Midwest comfort food. I grew up in Ohio and ate fresh-caught fried walleye at my gramma’s cottage, beef and noodles from my mom’s kitchen and broccoli cheese casserole when we went out for dinner. So when I was watching the Chicago ep of Feed the Beast (psst,…
In Ohio, we call them subs. In Philly, we call them hoagies. You can argue that there are subtle differences, but overall, they are the same thing. What you can’t argue is how much it sucks that they are primarily a lunch-food item. No more, my friends. I whipped up a solid, hearty breakfast hoagie…
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…
In my attempt to seem as outdated as possible, I’ve dedicated my HoboTrashcan Halloween column this year to a movie that is ten years older than myself… Young Frankenstein. I can’t help it, it doesn’t age. I’m also hoping that Gene Wilder will follow suit and doesn’t age. That’d be great. I know it’s not…
Alllriiight!! Bob’s Burgers’ new season premiered last night and I was a big fan. I’m always a big fan. That show is the best thing Fox does right now. H. Jon Benjamin can do no wrong and the supporting cast is out-of-this-world-crazy. I could not pass up an opportunity to honor the show with some…
It’s a classic. You’ve all seen it and you all love it. So to get you in the back-to-school state of mind, whether you have kids or not, I whipped up some Breakfast Club-themed breakfast recipes. Because there is nothing more quintessentially SCHOOL DAYS than our favorite group of misfits. There’s a recipe to fit…
This might be my favorite themed post to-date. I love It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia (so fucking much). I’m intimately connected with it because it takes place in my city. And, holy shit, the recipe is out of this world. I knew I wanted to do something that was just SOAKED in Philly for my…
I love breakfast. Any time of day, always. But when it comes to actual breakfast, during the week, I’m pretty predictable. Avocado Toast. It’s been my staple for years now. Avocado, lemon juice, salt and pepper, on toast. I even make it at my desk at work in a little coffee cup and a paper…
Hey guys. It’s my 50th post! [Set off your fireworks now, please.] To celebrate 50 posts on Bacon and Legs, we’re having bacon and eggs. For the first time in the history of this blog, actually. Kind of wrong, right? But, you know I can’t just do bacon and eggs without adding a couple cheeses…
I’d like to give you a little insight to my life. I don’t have time to do much on weeknights. I’m either working, cleaning or running errands. I have a feeling that I’m not alone in this. Especially since I don’t even have kids. I really don’t know how parents deal with that. **props** So…
