This super fast and easy taco recipe borrows the flavors of al pastor, but uses a shortcut cooking technique to give us the charred, spit-cooked flavor in a fraction of the time and effort of cooking on a trompo.

Easy Beer Battered Fish Sandwich

This is the fried fish sandwich you'll actually make at home. Yes, it involves frying and homemade tartar sauce, but the whole thing is so easy can be made in about 20 minutes. The result is something that tastes like it took a whole lot longer than that.

Real Soft Pretzels at Home

Your best bet for tasting fresh Bavarian style soft pretzels right out of the oven is to make soft pretzels at home. These traditional Bavarian-style pretzels produce a deep brown crust, crunchy arms, and distinct pretzel flavor we're looking for.

SMASH BURGERS

I mean it when I say (at the time of writing this sentence) that the smash burger is the best burger you can make at home. In this recipe, I'm showing you how to easy-grind your own beef for extra beefy flavor, how to not smoke up your kitchen (too much), and a burger sauce that you'll be putting on all future burgers for life.
