Grilling: The Early Years
Some of my fondest childhood memories are of the hours spent with my family, around our back yard grill. Whether we were cooking up platters of grilled chicken, burgers or ribs, it was a special time. Because in my family, grilling isn’t just about making a delicious meal together. We also focus on spending time together, bonding and creating life long memories.
The joy and memories of my childhood years followed with me into the U.S. Navy. It brought me immense joy to bring that same atmosphere to my new set of brothers and sisters. In between deployments, I built camaraderie with my fellow service members from behind the coals of my grill.
My Grilling Career
Seemingly overnight, what began as a hobby for me became a career. After the successful launch of my Facebook group, I gained the confidence to start posting tutorials on Instagram and TikTok.
My mission today is the same as it has always been; to share my years of grilling experience with others. Whether you are a grilling enthusiast, a home cook, or contest expert, there is a place here for you.
By sharing my tested recipes, techniques, and knowledge of grilling tools with you, I hope to help you create life long memories through the joy of grilling.
