EP7 - Kimchi Smoke 100% American 100% Korean

  • Summary

  • In today’s episode Marcel Gomez is joined by Robert Austin Cho, chef/owner of award-winning restaurant Kimchi Smoke in Westwood, New Jersey. Robert started off with backyard BBQ before progressing to competitions, building a following and, eventually, creating Kimchi Smoke. Roberts’ food is American BBQ with a Korean influence, but don’t call it fusion!

    When he started out, Robert had a 9-5 job in real estate. It all began when he saw an episode of Pitmasters on the Food Network and was fascinated by what he saw. Growing up in New Jersey, he hadn’t had a chance to experience real BBQ food, or have a real BBQ experience and the smoke drew him in. Robert began by spending most of his free time experimenting with smoking. He lived in an apartment, so he had to settle for a small, portable grill to start. It barely fit a rack of ribs if you cut it in half, but it was a start.
