This week Craig and Chris go to another spot in The Gulch to try out one of Nashville's top-rated breakfasts, Biscuit Love. Definitely didn't see eye to eye on this one.
In this week's episode of the For Everyday Leaders Podcast, Brandon and Alex sit down with Karl Worley. Karl has been labeled as the “Biscuit King” and he and his wife Sarah started the national award-winning restaurantx Biscuit Love Brunch in the Nashville, Tennessee area over 10 years ago. Karl and Sarah believe that being invited to their table is more than just about biscuits—it's about community, sharing and connection. They desire to nourish not only stomachs but souls. They have simultaneously prioritized creating an incredible restaurant and impactful culture for their team members. They invest deeply in their employees and in their community. Biscuit Love was awarded Andrew Zimmern‘s “Munchies: People's Choice Food Award” and named “Best Sandwich of 2015” by Bon Appétit for its famed “East Nasty” – a buttermilk biscuit topped with fried chicken, aged cheddar, and sausage gravy. In 2016, Food Network star Alton Brown recognized Biscuit Love's shrimp and grits as the best he had ever eaten. They have three Biscuit Love Brunch restaurant locations and are in the process of launching two more.

Chef Lisa Marie White is someone who dares to change. During a pilgrimage in her late 30s on the Camino de Santiago in Europe, she remembered her love of baking and decided to pursue it with a professional passion and scholar’s heart. She’s baked all over the country, from Domenica and Willa Jean in New Orleans to The Thompson Hotel in Nashville, and she’s now brought her unique style and talent to Biscuit Love in Nashville, a sensational spot you’ve heard about before way back on Episode 19. Lisa Marie prefers to be behind the scenes, but I persuaded her to the mic because her knowledge -- and that pastry passion -- is always a sugar high.
This week we are highlighting The Gulch neighborhood in Nashville. Brandon Styll and Kelly Sutton talk with Kahlil Arnold, Owner of Arnold's Country Kitchen. Karl Worley, Owner of Biscuit Love, and Za Pizza. Levon Wallace, Owner of Fat Belly Pretzel, and David Cronin, the GM of the brand new W.

We are also going to give a little preview of what you can expect in this upcoming season. We all love vacation, but sometimes we’re so busy with work and life that vacation time creeps up on us, and we have to scramble to find the best place to visit. If this sounds like you, we can help. We are going to answer the dreaded question of "where should we go for vacation?" We are going to do all of the research and leg work, so you can focus on the fun stuff. We are going to interview experts and find the best ways to save money, best places to visit, where to stay, and learn with you about exotic travel destinations. Show Notes: [01:13] We've been gone for awhile. We ended our season and then went into work mode. [01:40] We've been busy, working and traveling for work and some family travel. [02:00] This was a great NFL season for Titans fans. This was a busy football season. We saw the Georgia Bulldogs in Tennessee. [03:15] We also saw the Chiefs in their last loss to the Titans and ate at Biscuit Love. [03:51] If you follow us on social media you probably saw a lot of pictures posted.

[05:24] One of the things that we did was take our daughter to see Hamilton. It was amazing. The whole show is delightful. The first song gave us goosebumps. [06:27] We moved to Nashville a year and a half ago. We have really been exploring the city. We saw Hamilton and went to the symphony. We also did the Hop-on Hop-off Bus. Now Chris knows all of the historical facts about the city. [06:58] We also did a three part series on things we are learning about Nashville.

Biscuit Love owners Karl and Sarah Worley tell us about their pivot to pizza and how they've build a healthy restaurant business.
Biscuit Love is a cute little breakfasty restaurant in Hillsboro Village, Nashville, in the old Sunset Grill location. Good menu with lots of unique eats... like Bonuts! Don't leave without trying some Bonuts and the potato casserole is yummy also.There are two other Biscuit Love locations... one in Franklin and one in the Gulch.

We are wrapping up our Nashville series with where to eat in Nashville. We already talked about Where to Stay in Nashville and The Top Things to Do in Nashville. Now it’s time to talk about some of the amazing food options when in Nashville. If you haven’t eaten yet, this episode will make you hungry. We’ve been focusing on eating better and getting fit. Diane is on the keto diet and Chris is doing a keto/paleo version. To be honest, preparing for this show was a bit of a challenge to our diets. There are so many great things to do and see in Nashville and the food is no exception. We kick things off with some great spots in Downtown Nashville. We tell you about the super cool Acme Feed & Seed along with what we each like to order. We also tell you where to get amazing oysters and unbelievable milkshakes before moving on to our favorite spots in The Gulch. After that we tell you about Midtown hotspots, some classy West End options, our favorite spot in 12 South, Hillsboro Village, and Chris’s favorite pizza place in East Nashville. Warning: graphic food descriptions, please eat before listening to this episode. Show Notes: [04:15] Downtown Nashville is the hustling and bustling area where all of the honkytonks are located. [04:32] Acme Feed & Seed is a cool historic building with a honkytonk on the first floor with great food and drinks. There is also a great bar and food on the second floor which also has sushi. The third floor is an event center called The Hatchery. There is also a rooftop bar with great views of Broadway, the Cumberland River, Nissan Stadium, and Riverfront Park. [07:42] Get Ike & Mike Nachos on the second floor. [08:25] Chris would eat an acme burger with bear creek beef & cheddar cheese and hand-cut fries. Di would have he farm-raised catfish with hush puppies, hand cut fries, and slaw. [09:32] For dessert, try a southern hand pie with cinnamon ice cream and caramel sauce. [10:05] The Southern Steak & Oyster. They serve breakfast, lunch, brunch, and dinner. At brunch you can get pictures of mimosas. They also have great oysters. [11:54] Eat like Chris with the fried chicken, greens, and mac and cheese or a double-cut smoked pork chop. Di likes the shrimp and grits or seared sea scallops. [14:11] There is a special dessert place called Legendairy. It's a crazy over the top milkshake bar. They make things like Death by Chocolate which is Dutch chocolate and rocky road ice cream, chocolate icing rim, chocolate chips, whipped cream, chocolate fudge drizzle, chocolate sprinkles, and a fudge brownie on top. [17:06] Now we are moving into The Gulch. The Whiskey Kitchen has great cocktails with awesome names. They have an extensive whiskey menu and late night dinners. [18:34] Chris would eat dry wings (sweet & smoky bbq, togarashi, or ranch-spiced) to start and three little pigs brick oven pizza (sausage, pit ham, Gifford’s bacon, mozzarella, provolone). [19:33] Di would have the rocket salad (arugula, slicked strawberry, blue cheese crumble, toasted pecan, lemon herb vinaigrette) to start and low country pulled pork sandwich with chipotle mac & cheese. [20:27] Biscuit Love is world famous. They have three locations. They serve breakfast, lunch, and brunch. They started as a food truck and make everything from scratch. Try an east nasty chicken sandwich. [21:33] Chris would have the princess which is buttermilk biscuit, Nashville style spicy boneless hot chicken thigh, pickles, mustard, and honey. [22:15] Di would have Bonuts which are fried biscuit dough, tossed in sugar, topped with lemon mascarpone, served over blueberry compote or Hummingbird Family Reserve a drop biscuit filled with pineapples and banana jam, topped with cream cheese frosting and pecans. [23:28] Jackalope Brewing Co. The founders met while studying in Scotland. They have brews with cool names. Chris would have a Fennario IPA and Di would have Thunder Ann Pale Ale. [26:09] Midtown. The Patterson House is a speakeasy in a secret location. Governor Malcolm R. Patterson vetoed prohibition, but his veto was overridden by the state legislature. They have unique cocktails and delicious food. [29:48] Get some Nashville hot chicken at Hattie B's. [31:22] Chris would get the Damn Hot with southern greens. Di would get the Southern with no heat with either peach cobbler or banana pudding. [31:45] Warning: Shut the Cluck Up!! is HOT! [34:31] We love pizza, but only recommend places we go. DeSano has communal seating and traditional style pizza, calzones, cannolis, and you can even get slices. [36:03] The West End. The Americano is like a tapas bar. It's fine dining in a relaxed atmosphere. [37:12] Saltine is a great seafood place, and they have oysters. Chris's favorite go-to dessert is chocolate cake. [38:34] 12 South has some cool places to eat. Bartaco is our go-to spot. They have street tacos. We always order the chips and salsas. [40:06] Chris orders the chicken and shrimp. Di loves the crispy rock shrimp, glazed pork belly, Baja fish, and when in season the crispy oyster tacos. [42:36] The Christie Cookie Co. is across the street. They have amazing cookies and brownies that are awesome. Take some home! [44:09] The Frothy Monkey serves breakfast through dinner, and they have great coffee and food options. [45:41] Hillsboro Village: Check out the Pancake Pantry. Get there before 9:00 am. There is a long line, but the pancakes are worth it. [47:31] Kay Bob's has Persian and Southern influenced healthy food. [48:26] When you make it to East Nashville hit up Five Points Pizza. This is Chris's favorite, and even though you can get just a slice, he suggests the whole pie. [50:25] The Pharmacy has 100% Tennessee raised burgers. They have great burgers, brats, and shakes. They make their own condiments and have a unique beer selection. [51:44] Time to wrap up and go eat.

When we got word that a biscuit expert was in attendance at the International Symposium on Bread, we knew we needed to sit down for a conversation about flour, butter, and yeast! Karl Worley shares tips on making the perfect biscuit – one that can hold up when making the fried chicken sandwich that’s popular at his Nashville restaurant, Biscuit Love. He also shares some news about his forthcoming pizza restaurant and gives us a peek into the Local, Ancient, and Heirlooms Grains workshop at the On The Rise 3. Chef Karl Worley grew up in the Southern Appalachian Mountains, where he learned to cook from his grandfather in Bristol, Tennessee. He received his culinary degree from Johnson & Wales University in 2010. After spending time in the kitchens of Rioja in Denver, he further developed his passion for sustainable agriculture and farm-to-table restaurants while working for the Coon Rock Farm in Hillsborough, NC.

#ASBull Our Biweekly show with J & Brandon answering all the important questions
In this episode we go to Biscuit Love in Franklin, TN and talk a little bit about Nashville traffic, Jesse's journey of faith, and something called the "romance road"... enjoy! We'd love to hear from you! Join the conversation at: http://coffeeshopconversation.com
Attention, everyone. This is the inaugural podcast appearance of the one and only Dr. Shannon Ferrell. If you know Shannon, you love him. He is one of the best, most popular professors at Oklahoma State University and an extremely in-demand speaker on agricultural law issues across the nation. We are honored to be his first podcast appearance! Shannon grew up on his family farm at Leedy, Oklahoma and obtained his bachelor's and master's degrees in Agricultural Economics at Oklahoma State University and his law degree at Oklahoma City University School of Law. After several years in private practice, he landed his dream job teaching agricultural law at Oklahoma State University. Today, we are talking about a topic near and dear to both Shannon's heart and my own, and that is transition planning for farm and ranch families. As Shannon explains, "transition planning" includes both an estate plan to pass on personal assets at death and a succession plan to transfer control and ownership of a family business. There is no better time than today to start discussing these issues and begin putting a plan together. Shannon and I walk through a 5 step plan to crafting a successful transition plan: (1) Determine where your farm and ranch is now; (2) Start communicating with stakeholders; (3) Develop a business succession plan; (4) Develop an estate plan; and (5) Deploy the transition plan, evaluate, revise. Within this discussion, we talk estate taxes, the difference between equal and equitable, organ donation decisions, wills versus trusts, joint bank account ownership, evaluating skills and abilities of the next generation, and more! On the question of a law Shannon would like to see changed, he went to his other favorite topic, wind leasing. As he explains, in Oklahoma, there is a law that requires wind rights to be tied to the surface and cannot be severed. Shannon says he would like to see minerals tied back to the surface as well so that the surface owner who bears the negatives from oil and gas development would be the person getting the royalty check. Finally, Shannon is quite a foodie, so when he makes a restaurant recommendation, I always listen. He goes with Biscuit Love in Nashville, TN. Order a Bonut--they fry biscuit dough into a donut. Closer to home, in Stillwater, Oklahoma, he recommends Granny's on Main Street. It is described as the place where two guys would engage in a cattle transaction and get a french fried cinnamon roll.

Anyone that knows me knows I can make a mean biscuit. I have been making biscuits for my family since middle school, and I was once a production biscuit baker as well. That being said, I am not tied to eating one biscuit style: from angel to buttermilk, flaky to fast food, I never turn down a biscuit. So for me, Biscuit Love in Nashville, Tenn. is worth getting on a plane for. And apparently for a lot of other people too as evidenced by the line out the door every day. Karl and Sarah Worley started their booming biscuit biz out of a food truck, and they love how they’ve been able to spread the love while working together to build a family business. Being invited to their table is more than just about biscuits, it’s about community, sharing, and connection. Oh, and some damn good sausage gravy too.
We are back after a week of illness and what not and we are back in Nashville. Andy takes us for some Award winning pulled pork BBQ at Peg Leg Porker. Then he thoroughly enjoys his breakfast Biscuit Love where this episode gets its name. David takes the wife on a whirlwind trip to NEW YORK CITY (Where people know what salasa is made from). They tried the Carnegie Deli but they didn't have their act together so they went to Benash Deli and had some huge sandwiches and later had some Street dogs that cost a fortune. And And And It's DAVID'S BIRTHDAY (well it was yesterday when we recorded this.) And be sure and listen to David and I explain to his mom who Five Finger Death Punch is. Enjoy!
