Trends, Tools, & Truths

With Dry January in full swing, Tanner and Jerry start the episode with a spirit-free Tea Old Fashioned that proves you don’t need alcohol to make a serious drink. Jerry shares a few kitchen woes, which leads Tanner to tackle one of the most common questions home cooks ask: what knives do you actually need—and which ones can wait. Next, they look ahead to the coming year with a breakdown of emerging trends in cocktail bars and how drinking culture continues to evolve. Short Order Cooking returns with a rapid-fire round on kitchen myths we’re officially leaving behind in 2025. The episode wraps by busting one last misconception—that chefs eat the way they cook. Inspired by a recent article in the Dallas Morning News, Tanner and Jerry talk about how chefs really eat at home—and why snacking is universal, no matter how good you are in the kitchen.Amuse Booze: The Tea Old Fashioned (Zero Proof, Full Flavor)Thank you for listening!
