My guest this week is Daniel Gritzer, Senior Culinary Director at Seriouseats.com
We will be talking about the wealth of information you can find at Serious Eats and especially the extensive testing and findings his team discovered in The Science of Marinades. The science behind why marinades may not always deliver the expected flavor punch, shedding light on the factors that can limit their effectiveness and will provide viewers with practical tips and tricks to get the most flavor in your meat.
