What can we find you doing when you're not whipping up a dish for Men Who Cook?
We love spending time as a family on the farm with our horses or when some down time is needed, out on the open road on a Harley Davidson. I also like cooking meat on a grill or smoker and learning new recipes to try.

Spending time with my Wife and 3 children. We have 3 boys and we love the outdoors. We spend a lot of time on the baseball field in the spring and summer and basketball court in the fall and winter. When I can sneak away and play a round of golf I will do that!
