Hospitality industry veterans, Max Trujillo and Matthew Weiss, get behind the scenes of North Carolina's burgeoning food and beverage culture. Hear from local chefs, sommelier's, distillers, farmers, brewers and the whole lot of them in the NC F&B podcast. 

"Our intention is to create a behind-the-scenes conversation between industry professionals. Whether we are speaking with an advanced level sommelier about their wine program or a chef about breaking down an entire pig, we just want the conversation to be real, unedited and honest. The food and beverage world is a unique industry, and North Carolina's food scene is growing everyday.

Take a listen. We hope to entertain, teach and inspire while offering some specific information about the NC food scene."

Giacomo has infused North Carolina with authentic Italian-American culture by creating Giacomo's Italian Market. The market has grown into a leading salami brand and additionally Giacomo is one of the founding members of the NC Dept. of Agriculture’s Goodness Grows program. Listen in to find out about creating culture, building business and how to cure meats, oh and how to get an Alfa Romeo!
