The Correct Way to Serve Easter Dinner
from #193 - Fun Easter Foods | The Tim Dillon Show · #193
4 min
Tim lays out strict rules for a proper Easter meal — ham or lamb, au gratin potatoes, no chocolate desserts, no pasta — mocking anyone who violates the 'holiday menu' rules, with some back-and-forth bantering about the show's format.
- Tim describes his family split between Trump supporters and opponents at Easter dinner.
- Easter was never a holiday Tim loved because you don't get anything and the food isn't good.
- Easter requires the correct sides: au gratin potatoes, not mashed, and definitely not savage mashed potatoes.
- The main protein must be pink ham, lamb, or beef—a Chateaubriand or porterhouse—never fish or pasta.
- Proper lamb preparation includes a rosemary crust with garlic and herb au gratin potatoes and string beans.
- Easter desserts must be light pastry creams and fruit, never heavy chocolate which belongs in Easter baskets.
- Milk crepe cake—crepes layered with cream from New York City—is the perfect Easter dessert.
- Tim refuses to look at his co-host and complains about the studio looking like an adult tree house.
- Tim declines to read listener mail and dismisses the request with "I don't care what you say."
