RG has fast become a staple of the Adelaide BBQ scene. And it's little doubt why. A one minute conversation with founder Rik Carr and it's easy to see why. Rik has boundless energy and he directs 150% of it into his passion for meat and BBQ. Indeed, his passion for BBQ has led him into not one, not two, but three different careers within the meat industry. And he brings the culmination of that knowledge to RG - his BBQ store and food truck. In this episode we find out about Rik's various careers in the meat industry and how he settled on RG. We get into the shop and discuss the importance of branding, and about how 'the experience' is equally as important as the food itself. We then get into the the advantages and disadvantages of running a food truck and talk about how a food truck can get your business by during these difficult times. We learn about how the BBQ community has got behind him and helped him on his journey, and finally, we close out the episode with a lesson on BBQing at scale, including Rik's Top Three tips for folks looking to open up a BBQ business of their own.
