About the Film

Get ready for three episodes of the online cooking show Solid Dudes Kitchen:

  • Jalapeño Fest (Season 2 Episode 1), 2010, 10 min
  • Sausage Party (Season 3 Episode 1), 2013, 27 min
  • Home Brew / Home Team (Season 3 Episode 2), 2013, 31 min

Mlive.com probably says it best: “Solid Dudes Kitchen: Beer, jalapeños and DIY rule Detroit's punk rock culinary show…The show's recipe is something like this: Take a healthy Aerosmith hatred, add in fistfuls of phallic referencing, simmer with six-packs of top-shelf beer, lay down some music, top with motion graphic animations that'd make Adult Swim envious and finish with a dash of dudery.”

If you haven’t gotten the idea yet, we’ll just give you this additional hint:
Explicit content. Recommended for mature audiences.

Great Lakes connection:

The show is online but based in Detroit, Michigan.
