One of the beautiful things about a career in food is the ability to immerse yourself in another culture and cuisine. To learn the produce, the techniques, and the way to break bread. For Mark Jensen (Red Lantern) a career in food eventually led to an exploration of Vietnamese food, and with the Nguyen siblings gave Sydney one of its very best Vietnamese offerings. https://www.instagram.com/markredlantern/?hl=en Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
The path to becoming a chef is different for everyone, but for it came much later in life.

Belinda Hagan (McIvor Farm Foods) and her Husband Jason left their careers on the land to take the reins of a family farm. Although they are farming pigs the Hagan's consider themselves soil farmers who run pigs across the property to help regenerate the land to create a closed loop system. They grow as much of the food as they can for the pigs, and in turn the pigs help to aerate and turn the soil. It's an amazing model of biodiversity and healthy land management. https://www.mcivorfarmfoods.com.au Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
Australia has one of the most colourful culinary landscapes on the planet. Our fascination with the many cuisines of Asia is no surprise given our proximity, but Filipino food is one that has taken longer to take hold than others. However, there is a throng of young, enthusiastic professionals, lead by chef Ross Magnaye who are exploring the bounty of the 7000+ islands of the Philippines. https://www.instagram.com/serai.melbourne/?hl=en Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork

Growing up in an Italian-Australian family, Nino Zoccali (Pendolino) experienced the most extraordinary food rituals, including the annual celebration of breaking down a whole pig and using every single part of it.

As a kid Ian Curley saw a career in hospitality as a way to get ahead and change his life. He built an incredible career of influence downunder, and amazing friendships with renowned chefs such as nose to tail king Fergus Henderson, but throughout it all at the heart of everything he does he's been mindful of finding career paths for disadvantaged and less fortunate members of the community too. https://www.instagram.com/chefiancurley/?hl=en Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
A sustainable restaurant model, connecting with local producers and cooking delicious food seems like common place more and more, but for chef Evan Hayter (Arimia) food is an extension of the Arimia story, and in eating what they produce, you become part of his mission to give back to the land that gives so much to all of us. https://www.instagram.com/chefevanhayter/?hl=en Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
After 15 years working as a chef in some of the best kitchens in the world Michael Robinson (Hungerford Meat Co) knew what was required to cook the best meat and create the best charcuterie.

Growing up in a family with a rich Southern Italian ancestry, Danny Russo always had a wonderful connection to food.

Growing up in a family with a rich and diverse culinary background, Adrian Richardson always knew a career in hospitality would be much more than a job. Now with career that encompasses TV and his own restaurants he has placed whole beast butchery at the heart of everything he does. https://linktr.ee/AdrianRichardson Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
One of the benefits of a career in hospitality is a clearly defined career path. An opportunity to rise the ranks of the kitchen and one day lead it. For Troy Crisante (Quay), it's led to a star role in one of the most influential restaurants in Australia's culinary history - Quay. https://www.instagram.com/troy.crisante/?hl=en Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
Inspiration often comes from life experiences. A moment in time that changes the way you think and the way you want to live your life. For Damon Porter (Saison Smallgoods) that moment happened in the south of France where great charcuterie inspired him to take his career in a new direction. https://www.facebook.com/saisonsalumi/?ref=page_internal Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
A career as a chef not only delivers the skill to cook many different cuisines, but also allows one to gain a deeper understanding and connection to their ancestry and the way food has played a part in their family's history. For Danielle Alvarez (Fred's), food is at the centre of everything, and the rich Cuban and American background has given her a foundation to become one of the most unique chefs down under. https://www.instagram.com/daniellemariealvarez/?hl=en Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
Stumbling upon American farmer Joel Salatin and being overwhelmed by his production on such low acreage, Luke Winder (Tathra Place) purchased a small property and used his model of mimicking nature and a highly rotational template to start his own farm, and he is now producing what many believe are the best pigs in Australia. https://www.tathraplacefreerange.com Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
At the heart of most food cultures is a sense of sharing, giving and ensuring sustenance. To provide a communal feast, create connections and a sense of safety and comfort. For Terry Intarakhamhaeng (Soi 38) his journey from Monk to one of South Australia's best chefs is all centred around community, giving and sharing. https://www.soi38.com.au Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
After building a career in some of Australia's best kitchens, Guy Jeffreys (Fogarty Wine Group) began growing produce at home to sustain his own family. That deeper connection to produce led to a yearning to create that exact model in a commercial setting - Growing produce, connecting with hyper local producers and delivering the fruits of the land on a daily changing menu. https://www.instagram.com/veg_guy/?hl=en Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
Growing up in a multi-generational farming family in New Zealand, Jono Hurst (Brooklands Free Range Farms) always had a strong connection to the land. But lured by the big city lights he built a career in the hospitality sector until the magnetic pull of the country life was too much to ignore. Buoyed by his belief in quality food, he and his wife Nat created an incredible farm that not only produces quality meat and produce, but helps regenerate the land too. https://www.brooklandsfarms.com.au Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
While working with famed Australian chef Shane Osborn in London, Paul Cooper (Edge Hospitality, Ferguson Winery, Bianchet Yarra Valley) was challenged to breakdown a whole pig and create a dish for the menu. The experience led to a new approach to his cooking, where whole beast butchery is at the heart of everything he does. https://www.edgehospitality.com.au Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
Age should not be a barrier for change. Fear of failure should never stop you taking a chance on what you believe in. As the old saying goes, you only live once and for Danielle Dixon her passion for food drove her to take a chance at the age of 29, change careers and the decision altered her entire life. https://www.instagram.com/danielledixon/?hl=en Follow The Crackling https://www.instagram.com/thecracklingpodcast/ Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow PorkStar https://www.instagram.com/porkstars/?hl=en https://www.porkstar.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
