Big Bubble Focaccia – No Kneading, But a Lot of Everything Else

Just because a bread recipe is “no knead” doesn’t mean it’s no work. It just means we don’t knead, which is definitely the case here, since this dough is way, way too wet for that kind of thing, but we do fold, and stretch, and turn, and pull, and wait, and wait, and wait. So, if you were looking for fast and easy, this is not the...to read the rest of Chef John's article about Big Bubble Focaccia please follow this link to become a member.)

Greek Tomato Feta Fritters (Domatokeftethes) – Hard to Pronounce, Easy to Eat

There are so many great ways to enjoy fresh, sweet summer tomatoes, and much to my shock and amazement, these Greek-style fritters could be my new favorite. This is a major surprise, since I generally don’t enjoy large, hot chunks of fresh tomato in a recipe. I’m okay with them being cooked down, and disappearing into...to read the rest of Chef John's article about Greek Tomato Feta Fritters please follow this link to become a member.)

Carolina-Style “Whole Hog” Barbecue Pork without a Whole Hog – It Only Sounds Impossible

I recently watched an episode of Chef’s Table on Netflix, featuring Rodney Scott and his famous whole hog barbecue, and it left me both inspired and frustrated.

Easy Grilled Sticky Ribs – Barbecue, Not Barbecue, Sorry, Not Sorry

I’ve always been fine with the old saying, “rules are meant to be broken,” especially culinary rules, as long as the final results come out just as good, if not better. Unfortunately, not everyone’s as liberal as I am when it comes to such deviations, with “real” barbecue pitmasters being a perfect...to read the rest of Chef John's article about Easy Grilled Sticky Ribs please follow this link to become a member.)

Armenian-Style Potato Salad – It’s Complicated (Not the Salad, the Emotions)

I really hope the following scenario never plays out, because no one should be forced to make such an impossible decision, but if I was at a cookout and told I had to choose between the grilled meat main course, and the potato salad, I would pick the later without hesitation.
