I travel for work. I got to Hutchins in McKinney, TX under a recommendation. The special was Wagyu Tri-Tip. It was fantastic with a Chimichurri sauce.

I'm at 30 years in television production. I've been a freelance technical director & graphics operator focused on sports since 2008. I love what I do but it comes with sacrifices. I'm working this weekend on March Madness in Newark.
I don’t get to cook as much as I'd like, so I don't hold...
