## Resource

Howdy, I love cooking the primitive way, with just wood and a fire. I've been fascinated and inspired by it since I was a boy. After 35 years of meddling with fires trying to conjure up the next best cook, I stumbled upon a larger purpose. I realized my "why" was less about the end product and MORE about the spiritual pilgrimage of primitive style cooking. The enjoyment of prepping wood, getting a fire going, establishing a coal bed... I love being entangled by the many challenges within a cook and that process became the gift I didn't know I needed. The theater of primitive style cooking is simply magical, carrying with it a therapeutic value that can only be measured by my genuine joy of cooking.​ Along the way my inspiration led me to launch Primitive Pits (2015), Workhorse Pits (2019), El Bandido Grills (2022) and The Wood Fire Mercantile , all now on one campus in beautiful Cleveland, Georgia. ​The Quetorials Podcast is a hodgepodge of my inspiration, fascination, tips of wood fire cookery. I hope you enjoy!
