Description

Darryl Postelnick, the spatula-drumming TikTok sensation and party host, shares over 100 of his most popular recipes in his debut cookbook, *R.U. Kidding Me? Cooking with Darryl.*

Whether he’s grilling in the backyard before a Chicago Bears game, tailgating on a Southeastern Conference campus, or enjoying a steak dinner with his wife, Darryl brings a fun and festive approach to cooking.
