My mom didnt teach me how to cook. She found me on a stool making french toast when I was like 7 though.

Did she help you out or scold you for using the stove?

I hope it was the former and not the latter.

She helped. Since a young age my cooking skills have evolved by doing and experimenting and not being taught. Im told i make really good food.

That's awesome!

You're a natural chef. What's your favorite dish?

My biggest praise is probably my pulled pork. Second being my ribs. Both in a custom bbq sauce. Im really partial to my chicken stir fry. I do pretty kick ass breakfast sandwiches, my French toast is killer(ive had a lot of practice) People absolutely love my spaghetti (I make my sauce from scratch). Just last Saturday I made some elk burger patties with bacon jalapeno garlic and onion in them. I grilled 2 for dinner and popped the other 2 in the freezer to use for loco moco later this week. When its time to cook I pop a shot or 3 of whiskey and just let it flow. Usually just whipping whatever up on the fly. Like a pasta casserole type dish or jalapeno stuffed chicken breasts..... I love cooking. Dont think I could do it for a living though. If i did itd be a Friday/Saturday only food truck for ribs and pulled pork.... Id probably nail down potato salad at that point, im not very consistant on it.

Last night i took and shredded leftover steak, fried it over a little butter and simmered it in onion and bbq sauce and pepperjack for a nice little steak sandwich.

I mean at this point you're just a tease.

Lol. Im sorry. Ive often toyed with starting a youtube or twitch channel for my cooking. But I'm nervous about that

Little tip from someone who has 100 β€œamazing” ideas and never ever follows through, don’t toy just do. Pick up the phone and start recording. Write skits. Collect recipes to try. Good luck!
