I live with my wife in the Pacific Northwest and enjoy the outdoors. I have cooked meals in a dutch oven over a campfire to assisting my father, a professional chef, prepare elaborate entrees and specialty menus for clients. My passion is grilling and exploring different avenues of preparing food. I love to experiment with all types of spices and attempt the unusual. You are just as likely to see me out grilling with 30 below temperatures and snow on the ground to summer weekends grilling for friends and family.
