Alumnus Cooks Live With Regis and Kelly

| Mike and Kris Elston on the set of Live With Regis and Kelly. |
Elston's recipe topped all others in an online competition for the show's "Summer Grill Games" in the beef category. The show ran the contest to coincide with the 2004 Olympics in Greece.
The network flew Elston and his wife Kris (AHS'89) to New York where he prepared his recipe on the show with Regis and Kelly doing the hands-on work
"The whole experience was like being in a dream," said Elston. "I have friends as well as people I've met for the first time telling me they saw me on the show and voted for me. I even made the front page of the local paper in Pickerington, Ohio! It was very surreal to see my picture hanging on everyone's mailbox. I want to thank my professors who helped hone my culinary skills!"
When he's not helping improve the skills of backyard grillers, Elston is Food Service Director at St. Mary of the Springs, in Columbus, Ohio, a retirement home for Dominican nuns.
Although fall is upon us, it's not too late to enjoy Mike's recipe:
