In this episode of All Things San Antonio, hosts Brad Burnes and Ken Carter welcome Chef Jason Dady, the award‑winning restaurateur behind iconic San Antonio spots like Tre Trattoria, Two Bros BBQ Market, Range, and the soon‑to‑open Mexico Ceaty. Jason reflects on his journey—from founding The Lodge in 2001 to expanding into BBQ, Italian, Mediterranean, and modern American cuisines.
He’s not just cooking locally; his career has taken him to national TV. Jason has competed on Food Network shows like Iron Chef Gauntlet, Beat Bobby Flay, and Delicious Destinations, joined Food Network’s new season of BBQ Brawl launching June 1, 2025, and aims to join Guy Fieri’s Tournament of Champions
.
At home in San Antonio, he’s been recognized as a James Beard Award semifinalist, named “Best Chef in San Antonio” by both CultureMap and San Antonio Magazine, honored as a Star Chef Restaurateur, and listed in the Business Journal’s 40 Under 40 Rising Stars
Whether you’re passionate about food, local culture, or TV competitions—this conversation blends all three in one flavorful journey.
