Worcestershire is essential in beef stew and meatloaf. I never make either without it.
-
What a shame to destroy all the interiors with their wonderful craftsmanship. The "developers" who turned it into apartments ought to be required to entirely restore the interiors.
-
Got to have Worcestershire sauce in your Canadian Bloody Caesar cocktail. Makes the drink.
-
I use Worcestershire sauce in many things I make, salads, deviled eggs, beef gravy, meatloaf, hamburgers. Just a “shot” gives foods a great flavor!
-
Congrats on Roku! :) Worcestershire is essential in my family's beef stroganoff recipe. Lea and Perrins only
-
Glad it still exists. Great tour. I liked the Gothic interior, especially that huge Gothic fireplace.
-
Ken, I can’t help but imagining you doing this on PBS Chicago (at least). Thanks again! EDIT: I posted about 3 seconds before your Roku announcement!😂 Congratulations! 🎉🏘️🎉
-
Congratulations on your Roku expansion!
-
Most of the interior joinery of this house is still intact. It’s one of my favorite houses in Newport.
-
The fireplace is magnificent ❤ This sauce is perfect on hamburger and steak ❤
-
Honestly not a fan of what they did with it but at least they didn't tear it down
-
Beautiful house, beautiful interiors. As a Salvadoran-American, my family’s had a recipe for refried black beans cooked with Worcestershire sauce (plus equal parts garlic powder, cilantro, and Tajín). The end result is sublime, and can be added to many other dishes, especially Pupusas, or Casamiento
-
Very good episode, Ken. I enjoy learning the business that built these homes. Very livable dining room. Interesting connection. Congratulations on your expanded exposure. Tip: You may find interesting the story behind Tabasco in Louisiana. New Orleans to Avery Island.

An A1 house if there ever was one.

Ken, look into the mansions of former Indianapolis mayor Thomas Taggart. In Hyannisport MA he built a beautiful seaside mansion. The Kennedy family moved in next door. In French Lick Indiana, where he owned the French Lick Springs Hotel. On the second highest elevation in Indiana (Mt Airy) Thomas Taggart built a copy of the Hyannis mansion, this time in brick. Identical mansions, wow now that’s unique. “This House” becomes “These Houses”

❤❤❤ love your tours ! Thank you
-
It also has a bunch of condos built on the grounds
-
Congratulations with your show making on to television 🎉😊

I put Worcestershire sauce in meat loaf, hamburger meat, and sometimes salad dressing. I top burgers and steaks with A-1 steak sauce though, amongst other condiments.
