New RUB BBQ East Meadow, NY: Ooh-la-la!

Wow...so, is this thing on?? It has been a while, no?

Ok, so, I am now the pitmaster of RUB BBQ in East Meadow, NY and Kitchen Manager/pitmaster in the flagship restaurant in Chelsea. I am thrilled to be a part of this organization and to have been able to cook alongside such fantastic chefs as Scott Smith and Paul Kirk and learn from them as well as the team of butchers, cooks and managers that the owner, Andrew Fischel, has assembled.

So, what next? Well, the new restaurant will be open in a matter of days, and then things will settle back down to normal. Meanwhile, there has been a little press involving yours truly recently in the form of:
