Episode 74 – Wilson’s Secret Sauce – Steve Wilson

This episode features Steve Wilson of Wilson’s Secret Sauce.

It all began with barbecue competitions that were sponsored by Gary Maddox of the Philadelphia Phillies. The competition benefited Maddox’s charity Compete 360. Steve took first place in chicken and second place in ribs. Steve and Kelly met and they turned the BBQ passion into a thriving business. Their little catering company started to get high praise. As Steve puts it, “the secret to their sauce is love”. They characterize their style as Upper Darby Barbecue or UDBBQ. They provide options for vegans, vegetarians and gluten free diets as well. In this episode we talk whiskey and barbecue. Steve has been working on a maple bourbon barbecue sauce which highlights local craft ingredients. WARNING… this episode will make you hungry for what Wilson’s is cooking up.

Episode 73 – Caledonia Spirits – Sam Nelis

This episode features Sam Nelis of Caledonia Spirits.

We met Amy Casale at the Philadelphia Flower Show in 2019. Dressed in a Bee costume, she introduced us to Barr Hill Gin and we immediately fell in love with the spirits. We finally made it up to Montpelier, Vermont the home of the Barr Hill lineup. The distillery was founded by a bee keeper, Todd Hardie. He is passionate about the land and agriculture, as well as, what bees were bringing to the area. Todd partnered with Ryan Christiansen who had a home-brew store. In the beginning they came together and produced mead. Soon, they began focusing their attention on gin which began winning awards. The honey takes center stage and leads the way to make their special spirits amazing. Bees, as Sam explains, are the Angels of Agriculture. We had a fantastic time sitting down with Sam and discussing all things Caledonia Spirits. This is most certainly a destination that you want to put on your travel bucket list.
