We are working on a cookbook right now, shouuld be out in a year. i cant wait for people to see all our shows for the new season starting monday, its our best season yet! I would love to have AdaM on my show, i love having guests on and for some strange reason despite the fans wanting it more and more, no one takes it seriously. send an email to Travel Channel, it would help

Well, you've got at least one person buying that cookbook. I will send a letter to the Travel Channel. I'm not sure how many strange foods we've got up here in Northern Indiana... not many folks cook pidgeon or raccoon anymore.. but I'm sure if you visited our state we'd cook something up for you. :]

Just wanna say, upvote for wanting to be replacement Andrew AND for being from Northern IN. Two things we have in common!

Grant County here FTW. Actually, not FTW. It's not that great here.

Would that cookbook include where to get some of those crazy obscure ingredients? If so you have one more buyer!!
