First, Chris asks to amend his influential restaurants list from last week, and will obliges him. That leads to a discussion of some great BBQ, and ends up revealing that Chris and Will may be more passionate about BBQ than they originally thought. Chris brings up an article on country ham, that Will had sent them earlier in the week. This leads will to geek out about curing methods. You can read that article here. Then Chris throws Will a curveball, and talks about cookbooks.
