About this event

Grinders Restaurants and Grinders Signature Hot Sauces have each gained world-wide notoriety, in part thanks to owner STRETCH’s appearances on hit television shows like: Food Network’s Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives; Guys Big Bite; Travel Channel’s “Pizza Paradise,” Spike TV’s “Bar Rescue,” Animal Planet’s “Eating the Enemy,” Discovery Channel’s Monster House,  Destination America’s BBQ Pitmasters, and even ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.  STRETCH has twice toured with Guy Fieri on his national “Foodapalooza Roadshow” and the South Beach Wine and Food Festival, showcasing his custom-made 25-gallon Monster Margarita Machine. STRETCH continues to tour the globe, entertaining & feeding US military personnel with Messlords, a globetrotting troop of fellow celebrity chefs.  In its first year of business, Grinders Signature Hot Sauces has won more than a dozen awards, including the 2014 Scovie; has appeared on TV on 60 Minutes, CBS New York, NBC Albuquerque, and has become available in more than a hundred stores from coast to coast, like Price Chopper and Hy-Vee, in the Kansas City Metro Area, Jungle Jim’s in Ohio and Whole Foods Markets back East.  Most days, STRETCH can be seen creating new public art, chasing after his eighteen month-old twins, developing exciting new TV shows, finishing a third Grinders restaurant, [opening 8/12/14,] launching the first of many custom built food trucks, and slow-smoking some award-winning BBQ on the National KCBS  BBQ Circuit.  Follow STRETCH on Facebook or twitter @STRETCHartist, and visit Grinders online store at www.Grinderspizza.com
