In this episode, Daniel and Buddy sit down with Chris and Orange, the dynamic duo behind ZZQ Texas Craft BBQ and Eazzy Burger in Richmond, VA. Chris, a Texas native, moved to Virginia to study architecture at UVA, but his passion for authentic Texas BBQ eventually led him to trade blueprints for brisket. He and Orange share their journey of building a business rooted in quality, community, and hard work.
They dive into the realities of entrepreneurship—overcoming imposter syndrome, navigating personal trials, working with investors, and the challenges (and rewards) of running a business with your spouse. They also discuss the importance of valuing employees, staying true to your vision, and what it takes to bring authentic Texas BBQ to the East Coast.
Whether you're a food lover, aspiring entrepreneur, or just someone who enjoys a good story of passion and perseverance, this episode is packed with wisdom, and a whole lot of heart!
