• Food Friday: The Science Of Cooking Meat

  We often hear about the “art of cooking” but there’s a healthy amount of science that goes into it as well. On Food Friday today we break out the safety goggles and dig into the science of cooking meat.

  Do you ever wonder what’s going on scientifically when you cook? What’s your favorite cut of meat? Do you have any science-y food questions for Dr. Stu?
