Sunday Sauce, Strong Opinions & Chef Gabe Bertaccini
Chef Gabe Bertaccini brings Tuscan comfort food to the Chewed Up kitchen with a slow-cooked wild boar ragù served over broiled cacio e pepe polenta—plus laughs, stories, and plenty of strong opinions.

Premieres: Monday Feb. 16th
In This Episode
Chef Gabriele Bertaccini (“Chef Gabe”) joins the hosts for a conversation about Italian food traditions, slow cooking, and why the best meals are built around people as much as recipes. The kitchen fills with rich aromas as a Tuscan-style wild boar ragù simmers and polenta is transformed into a crispy, cheesy cacio e pepe base.
​
The recipe highlights classic techniques—rendering cured pork, layering aromatics, deglazing with wine, and finishing with milk for a silky, balanced sauce. Served over broiled polenta, it’s the definition of a Sunday comfort dish meant to be shared.
