This week, I was recognized by Slow Food Atlanta with their Snail of Approval.
An award given to chefs who live out the pillars of slow food—Good. Clean. Fair.
I’m honored. Truly.
To stand in the company of so many culinary leaders doing this work with intention… that means something.
But as I sit with it, I keep coming back to this—
The recognition shouldn’t stop with me.
Because the truth is, as chefs, we get the applause for the finished plate.
And we shouldn’t.
I’m only as good as the people who grow the food.
The ones in the fields. The ones raising, harvesting, producing—day in and day out.
My farmer partners… you are the foundation of everything I do.
We’re nothing without you.
This one isn’t just mine.
It’s yours.

The Faces of Fire.
When you do what we do, fire has different moods.
The same flame looks different every cook.
It shifts.
It breathes.
It reacts.
No two fires are the same.
They burn different.
Cook different.
Carry different personalities depending on what’s on the grate.
But one thing never changes—
As long as it’s burning…
we can do what we do.
And truthfully?
It’s not just about the fire.
Every flame represents the people.
Every spark represents trust.
Each one of you who puts our food on your table.
At Pink’s Barbecue, no matter the face of the fire —
while it’s roaring and long after the last ember fades —
we’re thinking about you.
Thank you for trusting us. 🔥

These are just a few of the highlights of my food things from the last couple weeks. As I look at the clips, I can’t help but feel grateful. I’m thankful that my days get to be filled with these foodie things and more importantly these foodie people!

We easily could’ve put this brisket on some bread or with some mac n cheese and had a typical brisket moment! However, what fun is that. We always suggest to our customers and to use our barbecue as the product but also as an ingredient. Our barbecue pairs so well with cuisines from all corners of the world. Next time you pick some up, I dare you to give something new a try😉

About a 6 weeks ago I had a brief chat with about beef cheeks. Our conversation was brief but impactful. I cooked some beef cheeks that weekend and was thoroughly impressed. This weekend I was finally able to make it to his collaboration pop-up and it did not disappoint. Their cross utilization of beef cheeks was pretty dope. The Lemon pepper turkey was definitely a sleeper. TRY IT!! However, the thing that I really loved about this particular barbecue moment was how aesthetically pleasing the food looked. and did an amazing job presenting their products in a way that was appetizing and respectful to their work. It was refreshing and appreciated. All too often barbecue is a sea of overdone brown and black. That was not the case and I so look forward to eating them again.
