Dan talks to chefs and eaters at the Second Annual Brooklyn Grilled Sandwich Smackdown about what constitutes a grilled sandwich, the ethics of picking pieces of stray pork off a public serving tray with your hands, and general strategy at such events.
In one of the weirder Sporkfuls in history, Dan and Win Rosenfeld debate all things pen chewing, including capped vs. retractable, ideal material and circumference, and much more.
The Sporkful podcast is going biweekly. And yes, I did look it up, biweekly means every other week, semi-weekly means twice a week. Now before you begin weeping uncontrollably, let me explain why this is a good thing.
Mrs. Sporkful and Dan's mom make their Sporkful debuts, joined by food blogger Sarah Sprague, pastry chef Emily Vail, and others, all to discuss the art and science of tailgating. Taped in the parking lot of Giants Stadium!
This Saturday I'll be the emcee for The Amazing Garden's Second Annual Best Grilled Sandwich Competition, a fundraiser for a true community garden in Brooklyn, featuring chefs from The Good Fork, Fort Reno, and Better Being Underground.
The great Jesse Thorn of Bullseye and Maximum Fun joins us to offer his burrito philosophy, tell a story about a judgmental butcher, and generally put up with some rather absurd questions about his eating habits.
