  • Summary

  • Welcome to this spicy episode of "Hey Sis, Eat This!" where we welcome an extraordinary trio of guests: culinary pioneer Chef Mary Sue Milliken and her accomplished sisters, Julie and Chris. As daughters of the remarkable Momma Ruth AKA Momma Ruthie, they share heartwarming stories that celebrate their family’s unbreakable bond, resilience, and rich culinary legacy. Join us as we fangirl over Mary Sue's renowned Mexican restaurants, including Border Grill and BBQ Mexicana, and learn how creative dishes and adventurous flavors from her childhood no doubt laid the foundation for Mary Sue’s culinary passion and success! The sisters reminisce about their favorite family recipes from Tuna Burgers and Pork Chops to Momma Ruth's famous Christmas Eve smorgasbord, which featured steak tartare and mouthwatering oyster stew. You’ll also learn how Mary Sue employed the talented Momma Ruthie as lead pastry chef at Border Grill leading to comical confrontations about microwave use during pastry prep! The sisters lovingly share touching memories of their close-knit upbringing in Michigan, including spelling bees at the dinner table and turning their backyard into an ice rink. They also open up about the strength and resilience inherited from Momma Ruthie whose eyesight and mobility was forever compromised after complications during childbirth to Chris. Despite her physical limitations, Ruth persevered by working multiple jobs after her divorce, teaching her daughters the importance of independence and self-sufficiency.
