It’s crazy how blk folks get little to no credit or recognition in this industry like the white boys do Franklin and all these other fly by night pit masters get all of the credit,recognition and respect this woman and others deserve they won’t even give business loans to blk folks that have been in business for 50 plus years
Just found out about this myself - I have family 20 - 30 mins away as well - I will skip Memphis the next time I drive there ..lol!!! Helens it will be !!
She is not the only black female pitmaster in the US. There is a lady in Memphis that owns Cozy Corner and another in Nashville. They had all of them featured on a Food Network special.
I met Bernie four different occasions (each random), each at coffeehouses, each time he was alone. It was just before the NH primaries the last time I met him. He was great. We talked for a half hour one on one. I hate and worry , knowing the piranhas he has put himself in with for this good fight. And his fight is a good fight. He is an honest guy, with integrity. Whatever anyone says about him in the media (or recites from hearing thru media), online remarks etc - He is a good man. Regardless of political positions - He is a good, honest man. And I respect him
We were total strangers before this day. He brought all the pies and set it up in the backyard with the tarp. He advertised on CraigsList for a pie fight opponent, and I think he was envisioning a more sensual, less combative experience. But he was an awesome sport and we had a lot of fun. He told me the next day he had bruises!
