Clinton's Holiday Stromboli | A Part-Perfect Recipe

03 Dec 2025

Description

Holiday Reset Week rolls on, and Clinton storms into the kitchen wielding dough, meats, and a questionable amount of confidence. Today he’s making a Stromboli Wreath — a holiday showstopper straight from his seventh-grade memories working in his family’s upscale pork store. Yes, Clinton has apparently been stuffing sausage casings since age 13, and Michael is personally offended he never mentioned it. Chaos ensues.As Clinton stretches store-bought pizza dough (frozen, defrosted, zero shame), the crew spirals into flashbacks: Clinton burning himself with glue guns, Michael’s Midwestern “pizza bread” heritage, and Carla’s traumatic relationship with molten pizza rolls. They layer provolone, salami, pepperoni, mozzarella, and oregano before rolling the whole thing into a log and dropping it — curveball — into a Bundt pan to bake into a holiday wreath.Rossi the dog tries to steal salami. Michael insists Stromboli should be eaten naked (no marinara). Carla double-dips without remorse. Clinton throws basil at the finished wreath and calls it “decoration.” It works.After slicing into the golden, glossy Stromboli, they crack open Señorita’s lime–jalapeño THC margarita for a mid-episode holiday buzz discussion: aging, hangovers, kids at Christmas, avoiding phones, surviving New York City, and why Michael once peeled grapes for a month as part of “chef hazing.”The episode wraps with a Frontgate “Chef Symon Ice Bucket” Giveaway + $100 Señorita gift card, fan mail, and a reminder that Clinton is — officially — the Stromboli King of Long Island.👉 Grab the full recipe + more at: www.chewedupshow.com/recipesTIMESTAMPS (YouTube + Spotify)00:00 — Clinton’s New York cab-ride near-death story01:00 — Holiday Reset Week chaos begins02:20 — Clinton’s pork-store childhood revealed03:10 — Sausage-making confessions shock Michael04:50 — Why this time of year feels “weird”06:00 — Carla plugs her new baking show07:10 — Why Clinton uses frozen dough08:00 — The Stromboli build: cheese, meats, oregano09:30 — Rossi the dog enters the chat10:20 — Rolling the Stromboli + Bundt pan hack11:00 — Pizza roll trauma12:10 — Stromboli goes into the oven13:00 — The finished wreath + basil “decorating”14:30 — Tasting + marinara debate15:20 — Stromboli for parties (or not for vegetarians)16:00 — Señorita Drinks taste test18:00 — Hangovers, aging, and clean buzz chemistry19:00 — Michael on grandkids + holiday joy20:00 — Carla’s “new experiences” philosophy21:00 — Clinton vows to get off his phone22:00 — Caraway ad read23:00 — Señorita ad read24:00 — New Yorkers, walking etiquette, chaos27:00 — Frontgate Giveaway reveal28:00 — Winner: Kelly D. from Basking Ridge, NJ29:00 — Fan mail + restaurant-TV accuracy31:00 — Wrap-up + sponsor thanksSPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORSSeñorita → Non-alcoholic, full-flavored THC margaritas made with real juice and organic agave.https://www.senoritadrinks.com/discount/CHEWEDUP20Caraway → Non-toxic cookware with even heating and easy cleanup.
