Want to hear something a little nuts? Despite hosting the Fat-Burning Man Show, blogging for
years, and authoring several bestselling books on the subject, I’m not really that into fitness
and nutrition.

I’m just really into food.

Sure, I can teach you how to get lean by choking down skinless chicken breast and steamed
broccoli six times a day for three months.

But that doesn’t sound like any fun at all.

Actually, after years of dedicated research, trial-and-error, and guinea-pigging on myself, I‘ve
learned that obsessing over the macronutrient content of food, the timing of carbs, or an
intensive exercise regimen is not the key to staying fit, strong, and healthy.

The key is becoming a great cook. Learning your


way around the kitchen will do more for your
health, body composition, and longevity
than any exercise routine, miracle drug,
or “diet“ in existence.

In fact, a recent study out of


Cambridge found that people
who cook up to 5 times a week
are 47% more likely to be
alive after 10 years than their
non-cooking peers. Cooking
can save your life.

And if you want to know the


truth about how to maintain
a beach-ready body without
pain, misery, or restriction, it’s
all about alchemy in an apron.
It’s about learning how to create
your favorite foods and share them
with people you love.

When you master the art of sourcing


and creating mouth-watering meals that
nourish your body and mind, you can quite
literally manifest the body and health of your dreams
by eating ridiculously well. Roasted duck with Asian orange sauce, smoked pork shoulder
drizzled in homemade beasty barbeque sauce, red velvet cupcakes, and much more await in
the pages ahead.

In creating The Fat-Burning Chef, I wanted to bring some of the most talented cooks in the
world together to help you enjoy the best food you’ve ever tasted. I sincerely hope that these
recipes help you in your journey.

Now let’s get cooking...

In Health,

they provide and where they source their food.

the directions
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

2. Combine your bananas, eggs, nut butter, and grass-fed butter in a blender, blender, food processor, or mixing bowl
and mix well (if using a mixing bowl you need a good hand-mixer).

3. Once all of your ingredients are blended, add in your coconut flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, vanilla,
and sea salt and mix well.

4. Grease a 9×5 glass (see notes) loaf pan with a fat of your choice (I used grass-fed butter). If you use a metal pan it will
probably bake in 35-40 minutes, so start checking at 35 to ensure the middle stays moist.

5. Pour in your batter and spread it evenly throughout. Place in your preheated oven and bake for 55-60 minutes or
until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

6. Remove from oven and flip your bread out onto a cooling rack. Slice and serve.

the directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place plantain chips in the food processor and pulse until broken down in breadcrumb consistency.

2. Make 4 burger patties with the pound of meat.

3. Place 1 egg white in a bowl and whisk until bubbly. Place plantain bread crumbs in another bowl. Dip each burger patty in
the egg whites then the plantain mixture to coat the burgers completely, then sprinkle with salt and pepper and a bit of garlic
powder.

4. Heat up a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, place 3 tablespoons of bacon fat in the skillet and add the minced garlic
cloves. Once garlic becomes fragrant, add pork burgers to the pan and sear on both sides for 3-4 minutes, making sure the
plantain chip crumble does not burn.

5. After burgers have cooked on both sides, place in oven and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until burgers are cooked through to your
preference. Remember, it’s pork. I did the poke test, when they pushed back at my finger, I knew they were done.

6. While the burgers are finishing up in the oven, whisk together the honey and two different kinds of mustards and slice up the
avocado.

7. When burgers are done, let rest for about 2 minutes so all the juices don’t come spilling out. Top with avocado and honey
mustard. Eat with some arugula. You don’t have to, but it’s great with it.

maple bacon crunch


ice cream

Then in a mixing bowl off to the side, beat the egg


yolks until light in color. (Not sure what to do with
the leftover egg whites? Freeze them individually in
an ice cube tray and then store for later use.)

2H 20m Slowly temper the eggs with the hot maple cream
mixture. Add the butter and then either return back
to the stove and whisk for 5 minutes OR Vitamix
that shizz for 5 minutes. I think blending it makes it
lighter and silkier.

Remove from stove and bring to room temperature


before chilling for at least 6 hours or overnight. You
want it to be plenty cold before churning in the ice
cream maker.

ingredients
Prior to churning, fry up 4 pieces of bacon until
4 Cups Full Fat Coconut Milk crisp but not burnt. If you cook the bacon in a
1 Pack Gelatin microwave then it doesn’t leave a greasy film in
1 Cup High Quality Maple Syrup your mouth. It kind of dries it out.
6 Egg Yolks
3 Tbsp Unsalted Pastured Butter Layer a baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt
Pinch Salt chocolate using a double boiler and then dip
4 Pieces of Thick Cut Bacon bacon strips in it. (I trimmed off any excess rubbery
3-4 oz Dark Chocolate (72%) fat from my jerky-like bacon before coating with
chocolate.) Lay on baking sheet.

4-6 Chill for 15 minutes and then cut into small bite-
sized pieces. Follow the directions of your ice cream
maker and churn the maple ice cream. Throw in
the chocolate bacon pieces towards the end of
churning. Pack into pints or an airtight container
the directions and freeze before serving.

In a small sauce pan, reduce the maple syrup by


about half over medium heat. Set aside.

Pour coconut milk in a medium sauce pan and


sprinkle gelatin on top WITHOUT stirring. Let sit
for 1 minute and then whisk in. Turn the stove on
medium and then whisk in with the reduced maple
syrup and pinch of salt. Lightly simmer the mixture
until just before boiling.

Kelly Winters‘ story of eating Primal is a little different


than most. Unlike a lot of others, who have dramatic
before and after photos, she does not. Her before and
after photos from the outside look very much the same.
She is a nationally ranked athlete who has always been
very fit with muscular definition.
While her outside appearances
look the same, her inside
photos would probably tell
a different story and the way
she felt before to the way
she feels now is drastically
different.

his food, he smiles while
unpacking it after a successful

response his food brings. The art of food
is one of his most rewarding past times.

Surprisingly, Melissa Joulwan‘s favorite


vegetable is cabbage. Her favorite
spice is cumin. “The Clothes Make
