Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Samuel Adams Just Dropped Its Fall Beer Lineup — Including a First-Ever Non-Alcoholic Octoberfest

The new non-alcoholic Octoberfest is worth highlighting for anyone who wants to participate in fall seasonal drinking without the alcohol. Non-alcoholic beers have improved dramatically in quality over the past few years, and Samuel Adams’ commitment to maintaining the “smooth, bold taste and rich caramel malt flavor” of the original makes this a genuinely interesting option. NA beers still contain calories from malt and barley, so they’re not calorie-free — but they’re significantly lower in calories than their alcoholic counterparts and allow you to enjoy the seasonal ritual without the alcohol. Pairing a seasonal NA beer with a hearty fall meal is one of the more satisfying ways to ease into the season.

Short ribs are also an excellent source of protein, iron, and zinc, making this indulgent-tasting dish more nutritionally substantive than it might appear.
