Budget Good Eats is one of the hardest things to do. When you set your mind to making a meal, you’re considered about making a great dinner. You never want money to stand between you and quality. Many of the artists on the show adhere to a strict budget, but they don’t compromise taste. Today we highlight easy and cheap meals that tickle your taste buds.Budget Good EatsThe inspiration and recipe for today’s meal comes from Anna Goldfarb. She shares the recipe with comedians Drew Castellano, Matt Haggerty, and host Brian Durkin. This dish borrows from Korean flavors, adding a nice sweet and spicy profile to the meat. All the ingredients can be used for other dishes, which is a true sign of budget good eats. The gang chats about eating habits while they dine. Closing out the party, the group plays an epic rendition of the trivia games Initial Listen and Continue Shopping.The Stars of the ShowHere’s a selfie of Brian and the guests in the kitchen.Anna GoldfarbShe’s the author of “Clearly, I Didn’t Think This Through“.

The sauce should be the consistency of ketchup. Taste it to your liking. Want it spicier? Add more pepper sauce/paste. Want it sweeter? Add more honey.* Once the marinade is on point, add the chicken. Brian recommends cutting the breasts into small chunks. More surface area will help the marinading process, and allow the chicken to cook fast without drying out. Put in the fridge for at least an hour, preferably over night.

A great martini recipe starts with the right hardware. You don’t want to serve this cocktail in a solo cup. It’s too classy for a back porch frat party. You’re a working adult. You want to put on some music while you whip up a quick Rachel Ray dinner, then kick back with this sophisticated drink while you watch Lady Dynamite.Martini Recipe Every Guest Will LoveRyan Shaner, Lou Misiano, and Josh Arnolde join Brian Durkin for some early evening cocktails. In honor of James Bond, Brian served martinis. To pair with such an elegant drink Brian supplied the guys with an antipasto platter. The boys can’t contain themselves and talk about literally everything. A lot of it pretty raunchy. For more information about the food and drinks scroll below. For now let’s learn about the guests.All The Guest VoicesBelow is the picture of the hooligans that you heard on tape.Ryan ShanerA comic force you can’t forget after you experience him.

It has about 3 locations around the city. Snacks for the antipasto platter included prosciutto, olives, roasted red peppers, and mozzarella cheese balls.Martini RecipeHardware:* Martini Glass* Boston Shaker* Tall Mixing Spoon* Hawthorne Strainer* Another StrainerThe gear can be purchased online or at a retailer. We recommend a restaurant and bar supply store. The prices are usually better plus you’ll get the real gear bartenders actually use. If you can’t find this stuff a glass and a spoon plus some type of fine strainer will suffice. As for the martini glass, if you don’t have one you at least need a vessel with a stem or handle.Martini Recipe Ingredients:* 2.5 oz Dry or Extra Dry Gin* 1.0 oz Dry Vermouth* Olives* Lots of IcePut some ice in the glass. This will ensure the glass is closer to the temperature of the drink. A hot glass is no good and will through off the optimal temperature. Put the rest of the ice in your Boston shaker or mixing glass.Add the vermouth and stir. Do not shake.
