How To: CONFESS OUR OWN FOOD FAILURES

Even after over three dozen cookbooks, tens of thousands of original recipes, and countless dinner parties, we've had some true kitchen and cooking disasters.

We're veteran cookbook authors Bruce Weinstein & Mark Scarbrough. We've had food fails. Dinner fails. Even dessert fails.

Don’t judge! Here are our favorite failures: things we’ve seen, things we’ve done. It’s not pretty. But it’s life. Stuff (ahem) happens.

Here are the segments for this episode of COOKING WITH BRUCE & MARK:

[00:37] Overbrined turkey

[04:15] Disastrous pie crust

[08:30] Inedible short ribs

[12:19] Roasted pumpkin with soup inside

About the Podcast

Cooking with Bruce and Mark

Fantastic recipes, culinary science, a little judgment, hysterical banter, love and laughs--you know, life.

Join us, Bruce Weinstein and Mark Scarbrough, for weekly episodes all about food, cooking, recipes, and maybe a little marital strife on air. After writing thirty-six cookbooks, we've got countless opinions and ideas on ingredients, recipes, the nature of the cookbook-writing business, and much more. If you've got a passion for food, we also hope to up your game once and a while and to make you laugh most of the time. Come along for the ride! There's plenty of room!
