I like the Briskit meal demonstration. I like oven meals especially a good pot roast meal. You should include a good basic meal using a chuck roast for an oven meal. Then show how to make a nice gravy. I use Gold Medal Wondra flour for thickening. It is fast and easy. I use the Wondra flour for thickening soups and other stuff.
I like your show. Thanks.
awesome show with a family full of heart disease you have gave us some great recipes
Joe, The meals look amazingly simple and delicious! Now, how about a full color Cook Book?
I love this show and have downloaded all the episodes from Itunes. More please!!!!
Looks really tasty.....
wow your show is awesome. I'm love to cook and I love when I can be healthy, but I'm also a poor college student so I didn't think I could afford to be healthy. Your show is just what I was looking for! Thanks!
By the way have you thought about making a chili episode? I'd be a huge fan of that
No comment...
Thanks Teeeeeracy
I'm glad in a short 8 minutes you can figure out the idea behind making these dishes...I hope you tried some of them already. BTW, you can get the full list of ingredients on one of the "resource" links below...
As far as the mix up on the times for the mushrooms, I meant to say for the larger mushrooms make it a longer time, because at first I was thinking about making the smaller, baby bellas, and they would take less time, but I think I missed saying that. As a matter of fact, if I had to do it all over again, I would switch over to the mini's instead of the big Bellas.
The honey mustard is a simple sauce that we thought was kind of self-explanatory, so we didn't want to spend much more time of this long episode just mixing together some honey and some mustard...but, pick your favorite kind of mustard and mix in some honey and pour it over the wings once you get the flavor you want.
Don't forget to taste your sauces BEFORE adding them to your food to make sure YOU like them!!
Thanks for watching...hope you enjoy the rest.

I have loved watching the episodes. I watch and I ACTUALLY FEEL like I can make these dishes!! The only comment I have about the Appetizer video is I didn't see the honey mustard in there anywhere. I watched it a few times too. Also, first he says to put the mushrooms in the oven for 7-8 minutes, until the cream cheese starts to ooze. Then later he says to put them in the oven for 12 to 15 minutes.
It would be nice if in the beginning, or end, there was a list of ingredients, I could pause it and write it down.
Hey Judy,
Thanks for dropping by...again, the caloric intake is compared to eating the same meal out at a restaurant. By no means are we saying the chicken wings and/or baked crab mushrooms are a "healthy" meal. By and by however, we are comparing both nutrition AND cost to what you would get eating out a restaurant. I do hope you enjoy the food though...but, keep in mind, we're not going for the "granola" kind of "health nut" show...as far as the sodium content, I keep a careful eye on the sodium content and I believe in this dish the only high sodium content would be the parmesan cheese I added to the wings, other than that, i don't use salt in most of my cooking...even to go as far as using garlic and onion powder as opposed to garlic/onion salt.
Thanks for your comment though and I'm glad you liked the concept...

"Only" 988 calories in a serving? Healthy? That's almost my whole day's allotment.
Salt and cholesterol levels of most foods featured are also very high. How about featuring meals with a high potassium/sodium ratio?
But I like the concept of the show even though I have to rework the recipes.
I like Joe's easy-going style. The use of minimal graphics is good since you're supposed to be watching cooking technique. It made me VERY hungry and wish I could actually cook.
The director of this show seems to direct on auto pilot. He has the same shots for every episode and the angle at which he frames Joe is very unflattering. Double chin anyone? Plus, the plated dish needs close-ups at the end when Joe sits down to discuss.
