Back in 2016, a pair of weirdosÑwriter and graphic designer Jenny Ashford, and Army veteran and former cook Tom RossÑdecided to start a silly podcast-slash-YouTube-show called 13 OÕClock about poltergeists, true crime, and creepy historical mysteries. All well and good, but as the show progressed and mutated, the weirdos noticed that they kept going off on lots (and LOTS) of tangents, and many of those tangents were food-related. ÒSo why donÕt you guys write a cookbook?Ó some listeners asked. And the weirdos replied, ÒWhy the hell not?Ó You now hold the results of this completely random series of events in your meaty little hands. Mmm, meat.
Featuring everything from artery-clogging Southern staples to delicious Chinese, Korean, and Indian favorites; from luscious desserts to fun, boozy cocktails, CookinÕ Time is an idiosyncratic journey through Tom and JennyÕs cooking and eating lifestyle, with entertaining digressions about the dishes, courtesy of TomÕs unique sensibilities (letÕs phrase it like that). So crack open this legendary tome and get ready to cook some stuff up with 13 OÕClock.
