  • PSA hardcore kitchen conversations

    High level, intelligent conversations about the many sides of our profession as chefs. Great for aspiring newcomers to learn from conversations that they won’t be privy to in a busy industry. Excellent interviews with the best people in the business hosted by a chef who himself has probably forgotten more than most will ever know.

    Thank you CHEFS PSA

Michelin Stars, Brisket Mastery, and the Price of Success Ep.205
Q: What role do resting and timing play in achieving perfect brisket, according to your cookbook and practice?
Resting is essential for flavor and texture; a long heated rest, often overnight, helps the meat settle, retain moisture, and finish with optimal tenderness, with rest strategy tailored to season and serving schedule.
Michelin Stars, Brisket Mastery, and the Price of Success Ep.205
Q: What does the pressure look like on the team with a Michelin star, and how do you manage it?
