Growing up in the South, family and friend gatherings have always been moments to cherish. Outdoor cooking, from Grama’s recipes to Dad’s Southern grilling style, has consistently been a highlight, offering unique flavors that captivate our attention.

My journey led me to Tennessee, where I played football for Middle Tennessee State University. This experience expanded my imagination as I traveled to opposing stadiums, witnessing diverse tailgating setups and people savoring the moments before the games—pre-game highlights in themselves.

After my college football tenure, I chose to make the beautiful Middle Tennessee area my home, alongside my wife, Jabada, and our three sons, Jaylin, Charles, and Jabari. Their unwavering support for the idea of a BBQ Grill supply store has been boundless. Together, we are committed to serving others and creating an environment for enjoyable outdoor leisure grilling!
