That’s Good Eats!

Keith and Lois enjoyed a cooking demo by Alton Brown at Barton Creek Mall in Austin today. Lois loves his show – records them all – and has taken to critiquing my use of spices and seasonings. Keith bought a book for each daughter, each of which Alton autographed.

alton_bookWe’ve baked his cakes, stirred his sauces, cut his fudge and grilled his meats, but darn, I would love to cure bacon the way he did on one of his more inventive shows. He used junk yard “finds” (tubing, discared fridge, etc.) to slow smoke the best-looking bacon I’ve ever seen. Just thinking about it makes me salivate on this keyboard. Must be my Midwest genetics recalling the distant sizzle of pork in Mom’s cast iron skillet.
Well, I’m off to steam brocolli, marinate tuna steak and stir the brown rice, because in the Woodworth house tonight, that is our “Good Eats.” And we don’t even have the televised services of a culinary anthropologist. Bon appetit!
