Let's get smashed

keep it simple, silly

Hello, everyone!

Hope you had a great weekend. And thank you for coming out to the Crust Fund Pizza fundraiser last Tuesday night. You’re wonderful and it’s always a privilege to cook for you. I miss that about my old job as a pizzamaker, but hey, I get to write for you now, which is as fun if a little less fatiguing.

If you’d like to see a recap of the event, you can check it out via the video below, and as a bonus, you get to see me walking around wearing a hat that has the word “Fart” on it.

(No, we didn’t know the WGN news crew was coming.)

This week we’re covering a subject I’m surprised I haven’t done yet on the newsletter: burgers.

Chicago’s a pretty wonderful burger town, if you haven’t noticed, with representations of pretty much any version you’d ever want. And we’re going regional today, with a style that’s pretty specific to our neck of the woods(ish).
