John had a lot at stake last Thanksgiving. After years of not-too-subtly hinting that he wanted the hosting job, John got permission from his mother-in-law to host the holiday in 2022—and he hit it out of the park. But anxious to keep his standing as the family's Thanksgiving host, John turned to Dinner SOS for some help perfecting his already perfect meal. And this year, Chris caught up with him to find out how everything went — and whether he's permanently secured the hosting position.

Today, we’re sharing an episode from our friends at Foods That Matter.
Mark Jacobs, Chairman of Watkins, divulges the delicate (and sometimes dangerous) process of sourcing the finest vanilla beans in Madagascar and explains why vanilla can be so darn expensive, only sometimes. But vanilla's not all they offer! Mark shares surprising health benefits of spices, and spills the tea on how Watkins keeps their huge variety of spices bursting with flavor - including a tip to properly storing your spices at home. Mark even reveals the one spice that mysteriously eludes Watkins (and why), and shares exactly what to look for when you're on the hunt for the perfect spices. Whether you're a spice connoisseur, a curious cook, or a foodie, this episode is packed with flavor-boosting tips and fascinating facts about food and the brand leading the way for delicious flavors.

Jen is a confident cook in a household of self-described food people. But she's never been able to successfully make tender, shreddy pork at home, so she called us looking for some rules she can follow to achieve her dream pork in her own kitchen. Chris calls on Inés Anguiano, Certified Pork Stan (tm), to help Jen embrace pork's versatility... and the fact that the only rule with pork cookery is "there are no rules."

If you're experiencing changes in your health, make sure you contact your doctor and/or a Registered Dietician to make a plan that's right for you.

Rachel's the kind of cook who free-forms it – no two dinners turn out the same, and she likes it that way. But she’s setting up a dinner for her parents and her partner’s parents to meet each other for the first time, and she wants everything to be perfect. The only issue? Every one of her guests has a different dietary restriction, and none of them seem to work together. So Chris taps Kendra Vaculin to help keep Rachel's eyes on the ultimate prize: making this gathering an excellent time for all involved.

Leah loves the Union Square Farmer's Market, but there's one tent she's too intimidated to stop at: the "mushroom guys" (aka Mushroom Queens). So to help demystify the alien-looking fungi that Leah's seen at their stall — and prove to her that she can achieve a crispy, umami-rich 'shroom in her own kitchen — Chris takes Leah to Mushroom Queens in Ozone Park, and they get a tour of an urban mushroom farm.

Today, we’re sharing an episode from our friends at The Financial Times.
If you’ve been to the wine shop lately you may have noticed a trend: wines marketed specifically toward younger drinkers. Many are natural, organic, or biodynamic. Others are made without special certification but boast backstories that focus on the producers, not just the region or grapes. Wine writer Hannah Crosbie joins host Lilah Raptopoulos to give us a primer on what young wine drinkers want. Why are pét nats, skin-contact wines, and chilled reds suddenly everywhere?

Caller Teddy has been vegan for a few years. But while she’s confident in her chickpea and lentil skills, bean mastery has eluded her. And, to be fair, the questions are big: canned or dried? What type of bean works best for which application? Is a big pot of brothy beans enough for a meal, or does it need to be doctored? Chris taps Justine Doiron (aka @Justine_Snacks), bean enthusiast, to help Teddy get hip to the humble bean.
Recipes mentioned:
Brothy Pasta with Chickpeas
Gochujang Brothy Beans
Breaded Beans

Pasta e Fagioli with Escarole

Maggie invited a group of old friends to her small Upstate New York house, expecting some to drop out last minute. But nobody did, and now she has to feed 21 adults, 7 toddlers, and 3 dogs... for a week! This is, admittedly, Chris's nightmare. Enter: Sarah Copeland and Anna Stockwell, Upstate entertainers extraordinaire! They walk Maggie through the strategies, pro tips, and recipes that will help keep her big reunion focused on the people, not the stress.

10 years ago, Jenny had a half-sour pickle from Zingerman's Deli in Ann Arbor, MI... and it was life-changing. But Jenny lives in North Carolina. She hasn't been back to Michigan, and attempts to recreate the signature half-sour crunch in her own kitchen have been unsuccessful. Chris enlists BA resident fermentation enthusiast Amiel Stanek (with a special appearance by Zingerman's cofounder Ari Weinzweig) to concoct a "recipe" that'll have Jenny enjoying crisp, barely-pickled half-sours all summer long.
