Despite facing significant discrimination in the male-dominated culinary industry, Chef Rossi transformed her rebellious upbringing and passion for food into a successful career as a pioneering chef and author. Her journey is a testament to resilience, creativity, and living authentically. Chef Rossi is the catering director, owner and executive chef of the Raging Skillet, a cutting edge catering company known for breaking any and all rules. She has earned a reputation as the one to call when it's time to do something different.  Rossi, who credits America as her hometown, grew up in a camper wedged on the top of a Ford pickup truck, and had visited most of the United States by the time she was 10.  She has a wacky sense of humor, loves  international food fusions that reflect her Hungarian Yiddish background, and her love of all things. Rossi has been published in outlets including the Daily News, New York Post, Time Out New York, and McSweeney's to name a few. She has been the food writer of the Eat Me column for Bus Magazine since 1998. Hosting her own hit radio show on WOMR and  WFMR in Cape Cod, now in its 19th season, Rossi has been featured on the Food Network,  NPR  and has been a popular blogger for Huffington Post. Her first memoir, The Raging Skillet, The True Life Story of Chef Rossi, was published by the Feminist Press to rave reviews. It was adapted for the stage, and has been a smash hit touring the country.  In addition to the memoir, Rossi has written two full length plays, a number of one act comedies, and a one woman stage adaptation of Queen of the Jews.  Her new memoir,  the Punk Rock Queen of the Jews was released this spring.

On this episode of Taste Buds with Deb, host Debra Eckerling speaks with Chef Rossi aka the anti-caterer! The founder of The Raging Skillet (which happens to be the name of her first memoir), Rossi is all about making fun, surprising foods that people love, as well as putting love into everything she makes. This shines through in her writing, as well.    Whereas “The Raging Skillet: The True Life Story of Chef Rossi” shares the behind the scenes of how she became a chef and caterer (complete with kooky recipes), her latest, “The Punk Rock Queen of the Jews” is kind of a prequel; it's her wild, queer coming-of-age true story, she explains.    “I never quite wrote anything like that where I made myself so vulnerable,” Rossi says. “I wish so much that I had been able to read something like that when I was 16 years old, because I felt very often like I was the only person in the entire world who understood what I was going through.”    Rossi talks about her books, her personal and professional journeys, and how to put love and kindness into food … and into the world. She also shares cooking tips, as well as her gluten-free recipe for the ultimate comfort food: mac n cheese.    “I think the secret ingredient is just really taking the time,” she said. “If you rush through it, you might not have the great balance; you want to really whisk it with a lot of love in your heart.”   Follow @ChefRossiNYC on Instagram and learn more at TheRagingSkillet.com. Find “The Punk Rock Queen of the Jews” at Bookshop.org or at your favorite place to buy books. For more from Taste Buds, subscribe on iTunes and YouTube, and follow @TheDEBMethod on social media.

Author Rossi talks about her new memoir “The Punk Rock Queen of the Jews” with  Emmy Winner Charlotte Robinson host of OUTTAKE VOICES™. “The Punk Rock Queen of the Jews” is published by She Writes Press and filled with fabulous rich characters, hilarious dialogue taking the reader on a ride into a secretive oppressive Jewish Orthodox world and beyond to be released on April 23rd. Rossi grew up in New Jersey where she was expected to just marry a nice Jewish boy and to be a good kosher Jewish girl but by the age of 16 the rebellious Rossi was more interested in exploring the punk rock scene of the 80's and her sexuality. Then her adventure seeking days came to a screeching halt when her parents kidnapped her and dumped her with a Hasidic rabbi known for reforming wayward Jewish girls in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. Rossi was forced to relinquish her pink hair and Sex Pistols T-shirt for maxi skirts and long-sleeved blouses in this repressive, misogynistic culture straight out of the nineteenth century where she endured not only bone-crushing boredom but also outright abuse and violence. Fortunately Rossi knew there was a better future for her as she broke free from her oppressors and made her way to NYC where she thrived. Beginning as a bartender the opportunity arose in the catering industry as she talked her way into any cooking job she could get. Rossi a self-taught chef and self-made entrepreneur ended up launching The Raging Skillet one of the most sought-after catering companies in NYC that Zagat dubbed as “the wildest thing this side of the Mason-Dixon Line”. We talked to Rossi about her inspiration for writing “The Punk Rock Queen of the Jews” and her spin on our LGBTQ issues.  Rossi is the catering director, owner and executive chef of The Raging Skillet for over three decades. She has earned a reputation as the go-to company for out-of-the-box catering and weddings. The Raging Skillet has been voted one of New York's Top Five Wedding Caterers by The Knot from 2009 through 2023. Her first memoir, “The Raging Skillet: The True Life Story of Chef Rossi” was published by The Feminist Press in 2015 and turned into a stage production “Raging Skillet” by playwright Jacques Lamarre that toured nationally. Currently Rossi has written two full-length plays, a number of one-act comedies, a one-woman stage adaptation of Queen of the Jews and numerous screenplays.        For More Info… LISTEN: 600+ LGBTQ Chats @OUTTAKE VOICES

Chef Rossi is the catering director, owner and executive chef of The Raging Skillet, a cutting-edge catering company known for breaking any and all rules. She has earned a reputation as the one to call when it's time to do something different. Her company was voted as one of New York’s Top Wedding Caterers by The Knot for the last nine consecutive years, and has now taken their place as a HALL OF FAME winner! The Raging Skillet has been featured on The Food Network. The Zagat's Guide has called Rossi "the wildest thing this side of the Mason Dixon Line." The Raging Skillet has been written up as "The new Rebel Anti-Caterer” by The New York Times, and winner of the Couple’s Award for favorite caterer by The Wedding Wire! Go Magazine has voted Rossi "one of the 100 women we love!" Chef Rossi grew up “orthodox light” (her family kept the meat and dairy dishes separate but ate McDonalds’ fish sandwiches). A rebellious daughter, she was shipped off from her Hungarian Yiddish family to live with a chasidic rabbi in Brooklyn. Feeling restless, Rossi broke free from religious and familial constraints to create a life of her own. What began as a revolt against the microwave turned into a quest to make food that is fearless, fun and, most importantly, delicious.  Join Chef Rossi and me on Tuesday, November 27, 10-11 A.M. CT US. We will be having a conversation about her life’s journey cooking her way through some of life’s biggest challenges in New York City’s most unlikely kitchens, her memoir, The Raging Skillet, and what is the hottest dish this holiday season!

The United States is supposed to stand for freedom that all men are created equal, but in today's America, it doesn't feel that way. The president seeks to bar transgender people from the military and Muslims from immigrating to the U.S. A woman's right to choose is under attack. This is far from freedom.

In a world laced with homophobia, which feels a bit worse of late, it can be hard to feel proud of who you are when you are gay. Embracing our true selves and celebrating our love, passion and glory is the best victory over adversity. We are beautiful. Love is love.

Between Harvey Weinstein, the president's remarks about women and the ME TOO movement, America seems to finally be waking up to the magnitude of the sexual harassment of women. It's time to really make a change.

How can we reach someones heart through their stomach? How can you taste and feel when someone loved the food youre eating when they cooked it? How can we spread joy and love through the frying pan? Chef Rossi and Dr Pat explore this delicious topic. I always sign my books the same way, Food is love, because it really is or certainly should be. - Rossi

This show explores sexism in America and how women get the message that they arent as good or deserving as men. Starting when we are little girls - we have this drummed in to us. How can we change the message? We can do almost anything a man can do except for giving sperm. WOMEN ROAR!

Chef Rossi, of the renowned Raging Skillet, is a master storyteller, and this episode doesn't disappoint. She is not your ordinary chef. She credits her success to everything from "kishka and grits" to marijuana munchies to the Hasidim in Crown Heights to foul-mouthed bar tending. Her stories are phenomenal, worthy of a Moth competition. Oh, and don't take my word for it: her cookbook (!)/memoir is being turned into a play and screenplay! Rossi, yes, she only has one name -– has been a writer for many publications, such as The Daily News, The New York Post, Time Out New York and Mcsweeney's to name a few. She has been the food writer of the "Eat Me" column for Bust magazine since 1998, hosts her own hit radio show on WOMR and WFMR in Cape Cod called "Bite This," now in its twelfth season, has been featured on "The Food Network" and "NPR” and is a popular blogger for “The Huffington Post.” As the owner and executive chef of "The Raging Skillet," a cutting-edge catering company known for breaking any and all rules, she has earned a reputation as the one to call when it's time to do something different. The Raging Skillet has been called "a new breed of rebel anti-caterer" by The New York Times, "the wildest thing this side of the Mason Dixon line" by Zagat and has been named among The Knot’s Best Of Wedding Caterers for 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 2015 and now 2016. Having won six years in a row, The Raging Skillet is in The Knot’s Hall of Fame. On November of 2015 Rossi’s first memoir; The Raging Skillet/The True Life Story of Chef Rossi was published from the Feminist Press to rave reviews. From Kirkus - "A humorous and witty chronicle of a woman’s pulling-herself-up-by-her-bootstraps rise through the culinary ranks." From Publisher’s Weekly: "With an insightful and irreverent voice, Rossi’s debut is well suited for foodies, feminists, and creative revolutionaries." Rossi’s motto is simple; "molds are a delicious thing to break!” Notes from the show: As a child, she always thought she would end up as President of the US. Then she thought she would end up an artist. She has always had a problem with authority and considers herself completely unemployable. Her parents bought swampland in Panama City, Florida (the "Redneck Riviera"), diet of "kishka and grits." At 13, her mother got a microwave and that was the end of home-cooked meals. She discovered marijuana, made stoner food. At 16, she ran away from home. Her parents drove her to Hasidic Crown Heights... "like being dropped off on Mars with matzoh balls." She explored different cuisines based on the ethnicity of women she dated. She hired a sous chef who was so good, should have been the chef. She cooked for 10 years before going solo. "The Raging Skillet" came to her like a light bulb. Doing V-Day for The Vagina Monologues led to her listing in Celebrities love to be treated like everyone else, and she likes to treat everyday people like celebrities. She is most comfortable with 150-200 people. She did not like working in restaurants: too high stress yet boring. She lived for the daily specials. Her goal is to delegate more and have more fun. By working for others, she learned what not to do. She has a "Zen kitchen." No yelling allowed. "Gordon [Ramsey], there's no way people aren't spitting in the food." She turns down competition shows. "Why One Neuroscientist Started Blasting His Core" - The Atlantic Like Water for Chocolate Stay super-organized. Never let things accumulate. The food processor: "mi esposa." The play based on her book is written by Jacques Lamarre. Advice: go work for as many different types of kitchens. She loves The White Trash Cookbook.

Rossi’s journey to become of New York City’s wildest and most beloved anti-caterers, includes growing up with Harriet; world’s wackiest Jewish mother, running away from home as a teen, being sent to live with the Chassid’s in Crown Heights Brooklyn, becoming a bartender on a floating tourist trap of a ship, turning her love of feeding others into becoming a chef in the 80’s when women were not welcome in professional kitchens, cooking at ground zero on “911”, surviving Hurricane Sandy to cater and speak for Ms. Magazine and all the while with humor and recipes. Rossi endures enormous and often-hysterical obstacles to ultimately build her own established catering company The Raging Skillet.
