Chicken Fat Fried Potatoes
It occurred to me last Thursday that one of the best recipes in my repertoire isn’t even something that I consider a recipe. It’s a thing that I’ve done for years and years–I talked about it in my video “How To Roast a Chicken”–and, yet, when I look at it by itself, separate from the…

John had such a fantastic time that now he’s living in Europe for three months, where he’s eating, marathon training…
