    Beef Stroganoff & Flank-Steak Sandwiches with Travis

    Beef Stroganoff & Flank-Steak Sandwiches with Travis

    Travis and I are back in the kitchen making two beef dishes. I passed along a recipe for Broiled Flank-Steak Sandwiches, top with roasted peppers and Travis asked me to take a crack at Beef Stroganoff. In the midst of broiling our steak and making egg noodles from scratch, I regale Travis with the story of how my father blamed the dog for causing a small fire, believe it or not, he is still sticking with this story.

    Stephen is back in the kitchen and we are slicing through a couple of pies.

We are also unveiling the magic of cream cheese, discussing puh·kaan vs pee-can, pork roll vs Taylor Ham, and revealing top favorite vegetables. There are so many topics ahead because who knew pie would take so damn long to cool.

LarmysKitchen ,

Great Pod!

Love this podcast. I drive a lot for work and it’s makes the miles fly by just diving into all the great recipes and conversations Kate has with her guests. By the time I get home... my mouth is watering to try some of the recipes made on this pod. Keep up the great work. Can’t wait to be a guest next week!

The perfect pod on food & bringing people together through cooking and cocktails!

This amazing podcast perfectly captures the way food brings people together. Everyone has a unique relationship with food, and a meal with friends and family can bring out some great stories! Kate does a fantastic job of diving into those meaningful conversations over a delicious cocktail and a homemade meal from her mom’s recipe box.
