Birthday pics from years past. Thanks to all the friends, family and fans who sent such kind wishes. This has been a hell of a year, can 2024/25 get better? I sure as sh*t hope so! Usually I try to share some wisdom from the year that I’ve gleaned but I’m a little numb from the last 5 weeks. My kid came home. Joyous doesn’t begin to describe how that feels. So grateful. On the flip side I lost a friend very suddenly which reminded me how precious life is and how we take our relationships for granted. All of them. My Yoda, the man who taught me how to live my life for the last 32 plus years and be a functioning member of society is in the hospital and could use some collective good mojo thrown out into the universe in his direction. If you feel so inclined send some love in my friend Jim’s direction. Life is fired at point blank range. It turns on a dime in milliseconds. Learning to be grateful for what we have, growing comfortable with navigating the unknown (which is ALL of life btw), becoming fearless in all things, while at the same time being of maximum use to others is what it’s all about. Stay awesome everyone.
Don’t tell me it’s the end. Last night of @deadandcompany @spherevegas … for now? #deadforever #liftoff #themusicneverstopped If this is it; thanks for a lifetime of shows. If not, see you at the next one.
Don’t cry because it ended, smile because it happened. Is @spherevegas the best indoor venue for live music in America? Yup, not even close. And look at what @deadandcompany did taking the fans through their epic venues and ending with turning the Sphere into a HUGE outdoor arena at the end of I Know You Rider. And 30,000 people singing along with the whole song didn’t hurt. This band is simply beyond superb, shortcomings and all. Thank you for a GREAT summer of music. Incredible weekend of music too. John Mayer is one of the best guitar players on planet earth. Seen him 6 times this year and he deserves the accolades. If you watch the slides in order you have almost the whole song for those that care to listen. For those that made this happen for me, eternal gratitude. The experience of a lifetime and you know who you are. #ifitsworthplayingitsworthplayingloud #gonnamissmewhenimgone

What’s better than a towering platter of fully loaded, flavor-packed nachos? 🔥 I can’t think of anything … especially when you consider the scratch-made salsas, the chorizo, the mix of cheeses and a healthy dose of my @badiaspices Mexican Fiesta seasoning. This is just a template, feel free to riff off it with whatever suits your taste. Pick up my entire Badia Spice line at at your local @krogerco, on andrewzimmern.com/spices, or on bodega.badiaspices.com. Full recipe is at the link in my bio, PLEASE try this one at home and tag me in the posts! And make sure you’re subscribed to my YouTube and Substack so that you’re the FIRST to get these recipes.
What national or regional chain makes the best fried chicken? @kyochonus is my choice these days. Who makes better chicken? I can’t think 💭 of anyone… their seasoned chicken 3 or 4 kinds are all superb and their “plain” is the king IMHO. Whose poultry palace are you into? Let me know … HAS to be a chain or mini chain. Minimum of 30 locations including country of origin.

Down by 20 and we win by 8! Congrats @timberwolves , you are going to the conference finals!! And @charleswbarkley @nbaontnt I got you covered on restaurants. You have my number.
This is my favorite crab cake recipe. It’s a true Baltimore-style country club crab cake, without filler ingredients. I make these in double batches and put the leftovers in the fridge… And if you haven’t eaten a cold crab cake on toast with sliced tomato and Russian dressing, you’re missing out! Get the full recipe on my website – link in bio.
Summer lunch vibes. As @melrobbins always says if you aren’t putting yourself first you’re teaching everyone else to put you second.
This dish features the best of summer flavors with corn, tomatoes, fresh garden peppers, and these deliciously buoyant spinach and ricotta gnudi. Gnudi are sturdier versions of a filling for shells or ravioli, and they pair perfectly with freshly grated parm. Full recipe will be up on Substack tomorrow — subscribe at the link in my bio!
I searched long and hard for the perfect Key lime pie recipe, and finally got THE ONE from a Miami fireman while filming in Florida years ago. The ratios are spot on and the custard turns out perfectly every time. For the custard, I like to use: 1 and 1/4 cups fresh Key lime juice Two 14-ounce cans sweetened condensed milk 8 large egg yolks And a pinch of kosher salt
This grandma-style creamy coleslaw is inspired by the recipe my mother always made when I was a child. For me, it’s perfectly balanced, tangy with hint of sweetness, crunchy and vegetal. Salting the cabbage forces it to expel some of its moisture, which results in an ideal texture that’s tender yet retains a nice crunch. Trust me, it’s worth the extra step. For this recipe and more summer barbecue inspiration, click the link in my bio!
Garides saganaki is a classic Greek dish of shrimp, tomatoes, onion and feta. Cooked under the broiler, this bubbling one-pot dish is so easy and a perfect way to utilize August tomatoes in your garden or from the farmers market! Be sure to serve with plenty of crusty bread to sop up the sauce. Full recipe is available on my website, link in my bio.
@ChefAZ shares his twist on a classic southern shrimp and grits recipe, homemade wild boar ribs and more during Andrew Zimmern’s Wild Game Kitchen TONIGHT at 10/9c on FYI.
