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 Pit
