Tim McGraw has been doing a lot of home cooking during quarantine and while we would assume because of the physical shape he keeps himself in Tim probably eats healthier than most of us, he admits he has his guilty pleasure cravings.

He says, “I crave stuff all the time. I love a great cheeseburger. I mean, I’m a cheeseburger fanatic, but now it’s more turkey burgers than a real cheeseburger.”

As for what’s been cooking in the McGraw house during quarantine, he says, “Faith makes great fried chicken, so we’ve had fried chicken quite a few times and I make the mashed potatoes. We’ve had fried chicken and mashed potatoes quite a few times … And I make a pretty dang good country fried steak.”

But you don’t look as fit and lean as Tim McGraw eating country fried steak fried chicken and mashed potatoes all the time. He and Faith do cook healthy stuff as well. He says, “She makes the best roasted chicken that you can possibly imagine.”
