feed me kc

Looks like we made it! The feed me kc crew has been unreliably churning out podcasts for an entire year, and they haven’t kicked us off the Internet yet. To celebrate, we recorded 50 minutes of pure ridiculousness that will surely make somebody pull the plug on this shit show. Before they do, listen to [...]

Through Thomas Keller, all culinary things are possible. With TK’s help (and a blowtorch), I prepared this perfectly pink prime rib roast for Christmas supper. If you follow the recipe, it’s hard to screw up. If you don’t have a blowtorch, go buy a blowtorch. Sure, you could just broil for color, but then you [...]

To celebrate our 13th episode, we talked about 13 restaurants that are participating in 2013 Kansas City Restaurant Week. Okay, that’s a lie; we’re not that particular. We actually just talked about restaurants until we got tired of talking about restaurants. However, the first person to tell us how many restaurants we talked about in [...]

For festive types like Jeff and Emily, cocktails are the reason for the season. They’re also the reason that after three long months, we’ve reunited to bring you feed me kc Podcast Episode 12. So, happy Christmahanakwanzika, and merry quite possibly your last full day on Earth. A lot has changed since we last came [...]

As you’ve undoubtedly discerned, I’m not a very good food blogger. This isn’t feigned self-deprecation in the hope of corrective praise. The evidence is abundant: I don’t post very often, take months to try new restaurants (if I try them at all), and eschew deep culinary insight for flippant sarcasm. But what makes me an [...]

For some people this may be an emotionally challenging photograph, especially for supporters of Todd “in absolutely now way related to Jeff” Akin. For that I apologize (especially about the sweet potato). Food phalli aside, this was intended to be a simple sample of fall flavors. Roast a few sweet potatoes and beer brats. Saute sliced [...]

A great beer dinner starts with a great concept, someone probably never said. So after weeks of brainstorming, Kyle and I determined that the follow-up to the first feed me kc beer dinner would be broad yet focused: “Beers from the liquor store, food from the grocery store.” Indeed, we were able to source all [...]

Good news: This recipe is a simple way to celebrate summer vegetables. Bad news: Summer is over and tomatoes (at least the ones that don’t taste like a big, mealy pile of nothingnesss) are gone. If I had posted this on August 8, before Emily and I fell off the face of Planet Blog’n’stuff, you [...]

I make the best fried chicken in the world. Or more accurately, Thomas Keller makes the best fried chicken in the world, and I follow his recipe. I know what some of you are saying, “Nuthin’s better than gran’ma’s fried chik’n.” But I hate to break it to you, it’s just not true, no matter [...]

It turns out that if you threw a pickle party, and invited everyone you knew, you would see there just wouldn’t be enough pickles to go around. Oh, hey. It’s been a while. We hope you’ll forgive our two-month-long absence and take this piquant pickle party podcast as a peace offering. We also hope you’re [...]
