Description
Josh Ostermann joins Ana, Eric, and Jake in The Cabin to discuss Wisconsin's most famous foods, offer up some trivia and background about them, and often some good suggestions on where to enjoy them. Ana takes kringle - which of course means a trip to Racine - as well as frozen custard, a Wisconsin-y twist on ice cream. Eric handles Wisconsin's love and knowledge of beer, diving into some of the wider varieties available across the state's 200+ craft breweries; he then serves up the history of the butter burger, with its origins in Milwaukee and Culver's Restaurants making it a national thing (from Wisconsin with love, of course.) Jake discusses the "miracle" of cheese - and it really kind of is a miracle, isn't it?? He also shares its origins, how Wisconsin became the leading state for cheese, and even some new ones developed in Wisconsin - such as Colby. Cranberries are next - serving as Wisconsin's #1 fruit crop and the official state fruit - bringing a brilliant red to the bogs in late summer and fall. Josh then shares the goods on Wisconsin's iconic fish fry and its history before shifting from surf to turf and talking Wisconsin brats. Wisconsin - and particularly Sheboygan - is the "Bratwurst capital" and he discusses everything from their history to key ways to cook 'em up right. They also share some events focused around these foods that are fun to attend.
