Your advice it home with me at the perfect time in my culinary journey!!

I want to open A BBQ Pit in Cowpens in Remembrance of my dad. Charles peewee hopper memories. He loved people music 🎵🎶 and food

I been wanting to start from step one doing some catering from home on my weekends off and free time. Then progress to a good truck over time. Can you make a video on how you started from the beginning? That would be awesome!

Thank you. I needed to hear this. You are so inspiring. Keep up the great work. The next time I’m in PHX I’m gonna check you out!!

Brother I appreciate this video. I'm in the process of doing something similar. I just got the price for a metal building about 3800 sqft. 900k. I just about lost it. You just helped me find some perspective. Start with something small to create something big.

Words of wisdom for anyone going into any business. Thank you, sir.

Excellent advice. I have been in this industry for forty years and you are absolutely correct. Thank you for sharing and I hope anyone thinking about opening a restaurant, catering or food truck will watch your video. I wish you continued success.

Bro, thanks for sharing your story! So much Wisdom and Great advice. 👍🏼

7:52 girls doing graffiti is soooooo dope! great video filled with plenty of knowledge

Some fantastic advice, organic growth is the best. I started my BBQ truck at the age of 51, day of my first event covid closed us down.. setup in my drive and sold to the neighbours.. eventually want my own small shack, BoB sit back plate of ribs and chill, nothing fancy just good honest BBQ and friendly service. Im self taught too worked in the City trading for 30 years! Well done in living your dream

Thank you I feel like I was looking in the mirror. I to am a construction project manager, have a business degree in project management and love grilling.

Very nice Video Trapp House BBQ, extremely helpful for a guy who's starting his own BBQ business. I am that fellow with the new and different flavors, winning BBQ Contest after Contest and people begging me to start a business. God Bless you and thanks for all the great advice. I'm a Georgia boy lost in Minnesota, the women love me while the men envy me cause I have all the flavors they wish they could beat. And I'm loving every minute of it. Good luck with your restaurant, I'm sure you will do great..

This was a great introduction to who you are bro👍🏾 It was also inspiring to a fellow entrepreneur in the BBQ space, with a degree in business management and real estate investments background. I will be keeping an eye out for you and hopefully connecting with you bro. Love🤜🏾🤛🏾

Amazing and so inspiring 🥰💯👌🏽

Inspirational, I'm trying to make it happen!

Thanks very much for sharing! I want to start an American BBQ joint down here in Australia. I have a real talent for it and picked it up pretty much first go. Lots of people always ask me to invite them over for Low & Slow Smoked American BBQ. I’m thinking I might just cook a couple of Briskets and Pork Butts on a weekend and advertise online that they’re for sale and I will deliver them hot to their houses on a Saturday afternoon or something? I live in a big town so selling 2 briskets and 2 butts on a Saturday should be achievable. God bless, thanks for the knowledge and the mentoring 🍻

Great professional video, thanks for the good advice!

I dig this dude. Hey i wish you much success. Tim from Chicago ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Cool stuff!

Enjoyed this video, thank you! I’m going to get a smoker and start practicing, and selling to family and friends first

Thanks for the inspiration! I've been wondering how I can start, I like your approach. AND I find out your in Phoenix, I'm down here in Maricopa. I'll come check you out!

Good looking out bro, thanks for the play book

your a very smart man

Wow very motivational my bro...

Great video.

Yo Phil the video was on point, keep up the great work. It's your boy Darryl from Tasterite see you at the gym soon.

Loved the video. I'm a back yard pit master. I cook for my church and want to take a shot at a business. Where did you find a kitchen to use for your catering business?

With the online catering start up u did. Im assuming that was from home, corect? If so are there permits or requirements for that?

I was wondering, you said to start off with a online catering. And then get a food truck. I thought I would need a food truck. Before. So you think I can do the catering first??

Thank you for the information. Also, I am local I would like to meet up with you if that is cool. Been to the restaurant and very good. Those wings are delicious!!!!

Thanks for this bro. I plan on starting my own bbq place this fall. Is there a way to email you to pick your brain about some things?

Great video!Quick question,I'm trying to become a bbq restaurant owner.Will I need my culinary degree to legally open my business?

Do you know a good food supplier for pork?

Please mentor me 🙌🏼 this is my vision and dream

Hmmmm

Hey brother been trying to call to talk business

People left because you take advantage of your employees. Pay more. It goes a long way.

Awkwardly walking around towards the camera was super off putting

do you give black people a discount?
