Personal Chef: First Annual Thanksgiving Q&A (2024)

In a new annual tradition, Geoff took your Thanksgiving (mostly) food related questions, answered them, and rambled quite a lot. Also touching on things like: safety in food preparation, anise, trends in ER visits around holidays, big hunking cuts of meats, historical notes in Greek cuisine, Skyline chili, probably insulting a bunch of nationalists by discussing food, the impact of salt when cooking, what to do with leftovers, where wine was invented, getting good value in wine, a reminder Cornell is a land grant, Missouri geography and viticulture, that Indiana has a state wine, when to travel for Thanksgiving, food as an expression of emotion and affection and openness as a society, and probably your question somewhere.  Turchetta: https://www.seriouseats.com/turkey-porchetta-food-lab-recipe How to Spatchcock:https://www.seriouseats.com/butterfiled-roast-turkey-with-gravy-recipe Röbller Vineyards (in Missouri): https://www.robllerwines.com/ Geoff's Half Marathon Fundraising Link: https://runsignup.com/Race/166435/Donate/HWzV2l69dTBMCW6a Our Socials:  Website: ⁠https://feedyourmascot.squarespace.com⁠ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/feedyourmascot.bsky.social Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/feedyourmascot/⁠ Threads: @feedyourmascot  Schrodinger's social network (Twitter): ⁠https://twitter.com/feedyourmascot/⁠  Copyright 2024 Feed Your Mascot LLC
