On this episode of Our American Stories, most food critics chase Michelin stars or fine dining, but Tyler Groenendal is chasing something crispier. From diners in small towns to highly rated restaurants in America’s biggest food cities, this Michigan native has spent years traveling the country reviewing one thing: onion rings. What started as a quirky side gig has grown into a devoted following and a deeper appreciation for the people behind America’s best comfort food. Join us as Tyler shares what makes a good onion ring and why some of the best dishes come from unexpected places.
