Ground pork is the perfect choice for juicy burgers that are full of flavor. In this recipe, we paired the flavors of a banh mi sandwich with a spicy chili garlic mayo. When you bite into this burger, it immediately offers contrasting textures, sweet heat, and acidity that balances it all out.

We are thrilled to be working with the Missouri Pork Association to bring you a series of approachable, delicious recipes featuring pork. First up is perfect for an at-home date night: Dry Brined Grilled Pork Chops with White Cheddar Mashed Potatoes and Sautéed Zucchini. We love the craveable flavors of this meal and the fact that it doesn’t break the bank for just under $10.
How many years does a restaurant have to be around to be considered a town “classic”? At the very least, the food, the service, the atmosphere, must all be reliably excellent since the first time you stepped in, years ago. Half & Half certainly fits that bill. It’s not a hidden gem by any means, located along bustling Maryland Avenue in the heart of Clayton, MO. Half & Half has been, and still remains, one of our favorite spots in St. Louis for brunch.

Did you know that in St. Louis when kids go trick-or-treating, they have to tell a joke? Yep, we work for our candy around here. Even the toddlers have some sort of trick they practice (with prompting from their parents, of course) for weeks leading up to the big day. Growing up, I remember my mother literally holding the bowl of treats back from the neighborhood kids until they each told a joke. The goofy jokes are similar to ones you’d normally find on Laffy Taffy wrappers. Example: “What did the sick pumpkin say?” …”I don’t feel so GOURD!”
