I'm a big fan of doing 'Triple D.' But I don't want to do it forever, don't get me wrong! Travel away from my family, are you crazy? But do you know what it does for these mom-and-pop restaurant joints? It changes their lives forever. I mean, their businesses will never be the same.
I did a big thing with Ritz Crackers - great cracker. Am I now the Ritz chef? No! Do I think the cracker has a lot of diversity and appeal? Yeah! Does it mean that's my foundation of cooking? No!
I think there's a misconception that I eat everything. The one or two bites that you see me take, that's it.
If you've really got a problem with me, and you came and told me you had a problem with me, I'd be interested to listen to you. But if you're just some loser that sits there and hammers away on some blog form or whatever, I don't have time for that. Why even worry about it?
If you are AC/DC, you don't get credit for slow songs. And if you are doing a show about food with a blond dude with crazy blond hair and tattoos who drives a hot rod, of course everyone is going to think everything you eat is deep-fried.
I specifically left the corporate world so I could wear T-shirts, blue jeans, and honestly, I always wanted to be my own boss.
People get a little bolder and more wild in summer. You've got things going on kabobs, things cooking on the bone. There's something about standing over a grill or outside with the family that inspires us.
The Tom Brady sandwich would be a prosciutto with a nice Buffalo mozzarella, on a crispy baguette with a little fresh basil. Brady is classy; he's a really cool dude. He's got a lot of flavor.
'Triple D' is not going anywhere. I enjoy highlighting my brothers and sisters in the business.
I'm a collector, so I've got all kinds of sunglasses. I'd say I've got about a buck ten, buck twenty.
One of my good buddies is Marcel Reece with the Raiders. He's a big 'Triple-D' fan; he's a big food fan.
One of my good buddies is Steve Hutchinson. He used to play for the Vikings, and he's also been on 'Triple-D.'
I love to exercise. I'm a big hiker, and I like boxing. I mean, I love a good burger, but I keep things in moderation.

The wok is one of my favorite things to work with when I'm camping. Outdoor cooking is not just about hot dogs and hamburgers. There are so many styles of food you can make.

I have a fond appreciation for the Canadian culture and the Canadian food scene in general.
I say to folks all the time, 'Watch what you're eating. You don't have to eat it all. Make conscious choices. It doesn't mean you have to starve yourself and eat carrots all day.' Have an awareness.
My first words were always about food - I grew up in northern California, and when I was 10 years old, I had my own pretzel cart business.
When I was 13, I opened my own business called The Awesome Pretzel Company, and my dad helped me build a pretzel cart.
