So the fear that I have with ghost kitchens is that it's going to be kind of this gold rush for restaurant brands, and multi-unit concepts to go in and to serve food to third-party markets. You know, there's a lot of people now that are ordering on their phones, they're ordering on Uber Eats, they're ordering on Grubhub, they're ordering on DoorDash. So there's a huge market and a huge demand for people getting food how they want it. You know, no longer can we discriminate [against] having somebody that wants great barbecue to have to drive, you know, a half-hour from Escondido down to Cali Comfort on an NFL Sunday, wait an hour in line to get a table because you know the Chargers are playing the Raiders. And then maybe not have brisket because maybe we're sold out. Like we have to be better than that. And our whole goal with a friendly ghost kitchen is to describe the story. To let people know this is the heart of who we are. This is the brand. If you want to see the ribs getting smoked, you can go to our Instagram page, you can go to our Twitter feed. Like, this is all smoked today. Once we're out, we're out. But now we can bring that to another location and service an entire part of San Diego that we weren't able to service before. So you know, Barrio Logan's just an incredible community that connects us to Downtown San Diego, to National City, to you know, the community in Barrio Logan, to the Navy base, to NASSCO. I mean it's so many amazing people that now don't have to drive to Spring Valley to enjoy our brisket. They can literally go on their phone in order through Uber Eats and get it in 20 minutes delivered, you know, to their office building or to their place of work. Preferred style of barbecue sauce: To be honest with you, I'm less of a sauce guy. I'm more of a meat guy. More of a meat and dry rub guy. So we serve sauce on the side. We like to let people taste the smoke, taste the flavor, taste the meat. Obviously we love our sauce, but we're a little bit more dry. Best advice ever received: My grandfather ... taught me to stay curious, get involved and ask for help. Deciding to prioritize the digital experience: We do a weekly podcast called Digital Hospitality and we wanted to call it that because what we've realized kind of in our 13 years of being in business, failing, doing a lot of things wrong, doing all different types of marketing, learning social media, learning digital media, learning how to run our website, we've learned how important the internet is. We've learned how important the smartphone is, how important content creation is. And we know that all businesses, no matter what business you're in, needs to be digital. ... It's so important now in this day and age to be where people are, and people are on their phones, people are on these different apps.
Live from San Diego's Circle of Hops (yes, that's a thing now), the Garage Hour goons - with everyone from .45 Phil, Chef Jeff & Ms. Karen, to the Diesel Ayatollah and our newest cohost, Vinnie the Screw (or Drywall Vinnie - we can't decide) joining Hostus Maximus Justin Fort - chat up Helix Brewing's primary and head keg wiper Cameron Ball about his luscious selection of finely crafted beers. From there, it's all gearhead: bullets and tornados and flooding, but hey, it's got beer and guns. And trucks - surely someone said "diesel" at some point. We free Cam Ball's taste buds from beer jail for long enough to try a suite of his finest ales, including his Pale, the piece of art that is Galaxy Rye, Active IPA, the latest - and most subtle - batch of Stoner Moment, a creamy Honor Not Inner stout on nitro, while .45 Phil gets outside of the last keg of the sublime Pumpkin Basic. Beer vibes included beer honesty and beer fun, which then detours into why home stilling might blow up your garage. There's also .45 Phil's dissertation on Laotian HVAC guys in San Diego (way more interesting than you'd think), hot places from Thailand to Iraq, making an FAL run like you plan to take over a small third-world nation, FAL and Luger ergonomics, RIPs for recently deceased SEAL Team 6 SSgt Bill Owen, tarps, flooding at NASSCO, what kind of ruckus is a Helix ruckus, bone tours, and America's newest anarchist, Uncle Donald, and how he plans to go tiger mom on the state of California's gun banning troglodyte horde in Sacramento. Should be a show. We certainly are - grab some Garage Hour, and we'll see you in the garage.
