As you might now, Cinco de Mayo is coming up soon, and I wanted to share with you a great dish to celebrate this holiday with, guacamole. Guacamole is delicious because of its creamy and spicy components to the dip carried on a tortilla chip. History and Popularity of Guacamole Guacamole essentially is mashed avocados with many spices. It was first...
The notion of putting everything I know about barbecue into a book is a daunting one. Not because I know so much... but because of the nature of barbecue itself. It's because the printed word- definitive, exacting, permanent- is in many ways antithetical to the process of cooking barbecue, which is, for lack of a better word, loosey-goosey. - Aaron Franklin,...
Jesuit is a brotherhood. We all know that, and we embrace that. One of the ways that we embrace this brotherhood is through food. Food is a great tool for uniting boys for anyone wondering.

We wait for several hours, our anticipation building, before finally seeing the line start to shift forward. Once closer, we detect...

And you'll see me with no other burrito in my hands than one from Chipotle, the pinnacle of burrito excellence. Some argue that another burrito establishment, Qdoba, surpasses Chipotle's burrito quality in that they provide the...
It's a Thursday night after sports practice. It's dinner time and I haven't eaten since lunch. My stomach releases various rumbles and growls. My hand is directed towards the fridge, opening it.
