From a food truck, to a new owner, and a sneak peak at a new restaurant--this week's Food Farms And Chefs Radio Show opens the door to hear from the individuals that make dining out an amazing experience!
We first heard from Jaime Juliano, who is the Owner & Pitmaster behind Big Papa Jai’s BBQ. Jaime's business was born from several influences and inspirations: From family members who influenced him, recipes he loved as a child, and finding inspiration while watching a Food Network show with his wife during the pandemic--Jaime found his passion for all things BBQ. Soon after, Jaime was using his skills as a mechanic to weld together a custom smoker so he could have a traveling barbecuer. Today, Jaime has since updated his BBQ equipment as well as offering creative takes and tried-and-true staples for Big Papa Jai's BBQ.
Speaking of staples, the owner behind one of Philadelphia's favorite ice cream shops joined us on the show. Cristina Torres, who acquired Weckerly's Ice Cream about a year ago, gave us the scoop behind what inspired her to go from a corporate job to owning the beloved ice cream shop based out of Philadelphia's Fishtown area. Weckerly's is known to have some of the best ice cream around, and we found out why. So if you're curious to hear what makes Weckerly's such a big hit, as well as finding out the exciting new flavors & opportunities in-store for this fall, then stay tuned to Food Farms And Chefs Radio Show to find out!
