Music and food, that’s the culture, and that's what I've built my life around. 🎶🍽️ From connecting cities to throwing parties with a custom menu, it's all about making moves and staying true to the roots. At the end of the day, I'm just happy if I can put a smile on someone's face with a good plate. What city should I bring the flavor to next? 🌍👇

I’ve made a lot of lemonade in my life, but I guarantee you’ve never had a glass like this. 🍋🌲During filming of the Columbia Coast TV travel show, I was hanging out in the kitchen with my friend, author, and herbalist Kathy Stevens, and she pulled out the ultimate secret ingredient. We made a classic fresh-squeezed lemonade, but instead of standard sugar or simple syrup, we used her homemade Douglas Fir Syrup made right from the trees on her property. It adds this crazy layer of flavor, it’s sweet, but you get the actual aroma of the Pacific Northwest forest right in your nose before you even take a sip. It is so refreshing and completely unique.

If you want to learn how to make drinks like this, you need to go read Kathy's wildcrafting blog.

What happens when a Chef and a wildcrafter get into the kitchen together on a travel show? Pure magic. 🍐🧀🔥

While shooting a new segment for Columbia Coast TV out at Wildwood Tree Farm, we decided to whip up a quick dessert. We took fresh pears, scooped them out, and stuffed them with blue cheese, dried cranberries, and toasted walnuts. But the absolute game-changer was the finish. We drizzled them with her homemade Douglas Fir Syrup. The way the savory, funky blue cheese melted into the sweet, earthy, forest flavor of that syrup absolutely blew my mind. Kathy actually teaches you exactly how to forage and make this syrup on her blog. You all have to try this flavor combo!

It’s your boy Chef Stew, and I’m finally giving up the secret. 🤫👨🏾🍳 You’ve been asking me for years what I use to make my private catering plates pop, and today is the day. The custom proprietary 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝘄 𝗦𝘁𝗶𝘅 𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 is officially online and ready to ship straight to your kitchen!

Listen, this isn't just another rub. This is 100% FLAVOR and a fully salt-free alternative. You get all that healthy, vegan-friendly, gluten-free edge without losing an ounce of the taste. Toss a little bit of this directly into your flour before you fry your chicken. Rub your proteins and let them marinate to unlock those deep flavor layers. Honestly? I put this on EVERYTHING. Breakfast potatoes, pasta salads, shrimp, veggies, tuna fish , and even popcorn! Y'all know I wouldn't put my name on it if it wasn't fire.

One of my favorite parts of shooting the travel show, Columbia Coast TV, is collaborating with incredible founders and artisans who truly respect their ingredients. 🌿🙌🏾

While filming our newest episode out at 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗱𝘄𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗧𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗙𝗮𝗿𝗺 in Raymond, Washington; I got to spend the day with my good friend 𝗞𝗮𝘁𝗵𝘆 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘀. She is an incredible author, herbalist, and runs the blog 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗯𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀. She knows everything there is to know about foraging and growing plants, but I had to show her my absolute favorite kitchen cheat code for fresh thyme on camera.

No more picking tiny leaves off the stem and getting sticky fingers. Just grab a plastic bag, give it a rub, and boom: perfectly stripped thyme in about 5 seconds.
