Husband of 20 years and father of 2 great girls. Taught myself to cook in college and I just like to experiment with new recipes. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't.
My favorite things to cook
I love to cook things that taste good, even if they aren't necessarliy considered good for you. Lots of meat dishes. Beef, chicken and pork, I experiment with them all. Will choose the BBQ over the oven any time. I feel that to really enjoy a meal, you shouldn't worry about the calories or the fat content, just worry about how good everything tastes.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Preparing the turkey on Thanksgiving day.
My cooking triumphs
My greatest triumph is my buffalo wings. Took a year of adding and subtracting to the recipe to make them come out just right.
My cooking tragedies
Clam chowder. Lot's of work and it came out terrible.
