This weekend, for the fifth year in a row, we’re taking food radio on the road to the Charleston Wine + Food Festival. We’re hosting interviews all weekend long from the Culinary Village. It’s a winning combination of great food, great weather, and great conversations.To celebrate HRN’s fifth year at Charleston Wine + Food, we compiled some of our favorite moments from last year featuring guests from across the Southeast.

I used to have a postcard of the Hominy Grill mural on my fridge when I first moved to Charleston. That image reminded me of why I’d been drawn here -- which was the city itself and its culture -- and that’s what the artwork by David Boatright on the building and the food inside it represented to me. It was very Charleston at a particular time. I am not alone. Earlier this year when Hominy’s Robert Stehling announced that his restaurant would soon close its doors for good, there was a community outpouring, and people pilgrimaged for a last biscuit, slice of pie, or bite of chicken. But I’ve had the pleasure to spend time asking Robert questions a few times before, and I knew that this James Beard award-winning chef is at heart a creative, and so he would have thoughts about where he’s been, why he stopped, and how to see the path ahead. Here, in his first interview since shutting the Hominy Grill doors, he gets behind the mic with me.
There are few people who fully embody the food culture of Charleston more than Matt and Ted Lee (The Lee Bros.) and Robert Stehling (Hominy Grill). They talk to Kat Johnson about a recent demo they collaborated on during the Southeastern Wildlife Exposition featuring shad roe, a seasonal low country delicacy. They also share other insights into ‘wild foods’ of South Carolina from sheepshead to rosemary. HRN On Tour is powered by Simplecast.

For our final broadcast from Charleston Wine + Food, Jimmy Carbone sits down with Robert Stehling of The Hominy Grill for a rousing round of trivia! We bring up two audience members to try their hand at answering questions about Charleston, Southern food and drink, and Southern food personalities for a chance to win Heritage Radio Network koozies and potholders. Robert shares some stories of cooking at Crook's Corner under the legendary Bill Neal and about his own experiences dishing up its simple, clean fare since 1996 at Hominy Grill.
