You have to think outside the proverbial box once in a while, especially when you make something so beloved as smoked pork. That’s why instead of stuffing it in a sandwich with some bbq sauce, we roll it up, egg it up, and …um… benedict it up.

In our near 200 episode lifespan we’ve never had a musical guest on The Sam Livecast until now. So please feast your ears on the musical stylings of the beautiful and talented Steph Johnson (http://stephjohnsonband.com) and then feast your tastebuds on Sam’s Spicy Sausage Pasta (or they call it Saucy Pausty here in this joint).

Ahv-Go-Leh-Meh-No Soup. It’s a tasty, heartwarming bowl of goodness that you can literally make while sitting in a chair and hosting a live podcast. Ask Sam the Cooking Guy, he did it in this episode!

This is it. About seven weeks we started with 8 viewer cooks who wanted a piece of Livecast history! Today we crown a champion and in order for them to get to the throne, they need to go through fish (our prime ingredient) first. Fortunately, the competitors get to cook at Fixtures Living’s famous outdoor patio kitchen and they’ll be doing it in front of a live audience! As some guy said on TV: “Let the battle begin…!”

In honor of National Mushroom Day (yes it exists) we’re doing a mushroom burger topped with mushrooms. Or in other words, “The Mushroom Mushroom Burger”. We also have Jason Markow aka The Tekst Artist (http://tekstartist.com) with us today to talk about doing what you’re passionate about for a living!
