Blokes in Mining: Guest Shae Lui - From Airport Security to TikTok Chef & Mine Site Legend

Shae Lui reckons he was just a broke bloke working airport security, earning $38k a year. So he packed his bags, rolled the dice on Moranbah, and cracked his way into mining.
Now he’s pulling six figures, cooks up feeds online, and has a massive TikTok following.

In this ep, we chat with Shae about how he:

• Manifested his way into mining with zero trade
• Got scouted for MasterChef from his cooking vids
• Copped the cold steak curse at the auditions
• Built a solid social media following while still FIFO
• Started pitching a legit cooking show with Screen Queensland
• And still knows the pain of night shift and spare stints

He’s a real one – works hard, backs himself, and doesn’t mind calling BS when camp food’s cooked wrong.

🎧 Flick it on and have a listen.

And check out Shae Lui Cooking Adventures on TikTok and Facebook – worth it just for the steak tips alone.
