Just when he thought he was out, they pulled him back in. "I don't do Cajun style or Creole style," – it's authentic New Orleans taste in the North. Mike Barnes, aka Big Easy, tells the Drinking Partners that after 20 years working in kitchens down South, he thought his days as a chef were over. Then word of his home cooking got out among friends. A few years and $10 pans of jambalaya later, he's got his own spice collection and catering company, Roux Orleans, where he's making catfish, crawfish, and gumbo so good that all you can say is "fam." Laissez les bon temps roulez. And remember: if you see the Drinking Partners out in public, tell them you love them, buy them shots of Hennessy, but please, don't touch them.
Guest: Roux Orleans owner Mike Barnes.
Location: 1028 Podcast Studio, Sharpsburg, PA.
