Episode 7: The 5-Up 5-Down Ingredient Game: The Guys Discuss their Favorite Ingredients

Hot Dogs and Caviar

Hi all, new episode is out. It's part one of a two-parter, in which Nate and Jesse get into the deep weeds of their favorite ingredients.

Also, note, we've switched to the 'explicit' tag for this episode. We want to clarify that there is nothing all that bad, here, we just wanted to err on the side of caution. We got a little bit into some of the raunchy, goofy conversations cooks get into in the kitchen, and didn't want to ruffle any feathers. There is minimal profanity, and a couple of sexually charged jokes (all good-natured, of course). The entire thing is a perfectly solid PG-13 rated affair.
