Noble Savage (he said): Happy pastrami sandwich day! A staple in delis all over the world, it’s easy to see why this humble smoked meat is so popular. So for today’s sandwich, you’ll need: 2 tbsp butter 1 onion Salt and pepper ¾ cup beer 4 big slices pastrami Whole …
Noble Savage (he said): Moonshine. That thing that makes Rednecks go blind. Luckily Silver Creek Craft Distillery’s Southern Moonshine is way more palatable than the traditional American version. I was expecting infused Mampoer, but this stuff is way more sophisticated, and hopefully not made in Cletus’ bath tub. Silver Creek …

As if dealing with the increasingly bizarre political situation at home isn’t enough, we now also have to deal with a narcissistic yellow-haired toddler threatening an unstable dark-haired toddler with nuclear war.

Noble Savage (he said): October the 25th is World Pasta Day, and you might think exactly what I’m thinking: how the fuck is pasta celebrated only once a year?! Pasta gives us so much. In fact, you can literally worship pasta (check it out, as I have, here). And, a …

Oxtail and red wine – it’s one of those things that just go together. Like Wine and pizza. Or wine and burgers. Come to think of it, wine with anything really. Except for politicians; nothing goes with that. But I digress. Some time ago we visited the Lanzerac stall at …
Noble Savage (he said): So it’s a long weekend, which will inevitably lead to a braai (or BBQ, if you’re from the colonies). As far as I know, a traditional surf ‘n turf is steak and lobster, but because of all the political fuckery going on, we’ll settle on cheap-ish …
Noble Savage (he said): Holy shit, I haven’t done one of these in a while! Our weekends have gotten pretty busy, so I’m not getting all the time I want to try out some new things in the kitchen. The absolute best thing about the weather getting a bit chillier …
