Receive Text UpdatesMaybe spaghetti with meat sauce but I can cook anything Italian or Southern. BBQ is one of my favorite things to cook because it involves fire and beer.
Who is your culinary inspiration?My mother. She let me help her in the kitchen every day. At first it was cleaning the mixing beaters after she made frosting with my face and then progressed to grating cheese as I got older and making Dagwood sandwiches after school.
What would you do with the $25,000?Open a food truck to test menu concepts.
