Embark on a delicious exploration as I, Carl Fiadini, invite you to savor the sounds and stories of the culinary world direct from Patrick Kelly Studios in Tampa. Chef Frederic Casagrande, barbecue maestro of Smoking Beard sits at the table of honor this episode, sharing his European heritage and the sizzling secrets behind his UAE barbecue success. The fusion of French finesse with the primal pleasure of smoke and char promises to excite your palate, with a sneak peek into a weekend menu that's sure to set your mouth watering for smoked short ribs and chicken.
As we fan the flames of flavor, we celebrate the community that unites under the banner of good food. Join us as we reminisce about the World Food Championship in Dallas, where Chef Casagrande’s showmanship with a steak seared its way into our memories. Discussions reveal how culture shapes the chef's culinary vision, from his European roots to the bustling food scene of Dubai, all while plans for a special dinner event and themed podcast bubble in the background, ready to bring us together for a feast for the senses.
In this engaging exchange, we traverse the competitive world of barbecue through Fred's eyes, from tossing his hat into the pitmaster ring to the meteoric rise of his spice brand, Smoking Beards. We tackle the intricacies of marrying traditional French cuisine with smoky undertones and search for the perfect smoking wood in the UAE.
