Cornbread waffles might be the best thing to happen to chili. On this week’s episode of Wild Game Kitchen, I’m cooking up wild boar two ways: a hearty wild boar chili with homemade cornbread waffles, plus braised wild boar in Carolina Gold sauce with homemade pickles, slider htt

@andrewzimmern Of course I’m with you on this! It’s been one of my biggest issues for years. The real problem is cost and sustainability, since they’re both intertwined.

Twenty-five years ago today, I was a New York expat living in Minnesota, desperately trying to find my mother. My mother made it home. A lot of people’s mothers, fathers, sons and daughters did not. Today I’m remembering them, and hoping that after 25 years of living in the http
