Brad Can Cook (video)

Place 3 young people in a small kitchen, one teenager cooking —add a dash of understatement, a measure of serious resolve, 2 cups sass and good natured razz, and you get: Brad Can Cook.

I know Brad through my son. He does the things many 14 year old boys like to do: play music, football, hang with his friends, and skate.

But then I discovered something about him that was different from any other teenager I knew—he liked to cook. Now I’m not talking about boiling some water and throwing Ramen noodles in. He likes to experiment. He likes to use spices.
After we finished filming, a group of friends dropped in. They kidded him in a good humor fashion, and nibbled on the leftovers. Grant, somewhat astonished, exclaimed, “Brad can cook!”.

Yes, he can.
