Meet Chef Bubba Joe!

Backyard Cooking, Big Stories, and Bubba’s Secret Ingredients

Meet Chef Bubba Joe—a cartoon biker, backyard chef, and legendary member of Da Sheddites. He rides the backroads of Palmetto Country (that’s South Carolina and her good neighbors in Georgia and North Carolina), hunting for tasty recipes and good stories.

Wherever he goes, he picks up old family recipes, adds a dash of his own “Secret Bubba Ingredients,” and fires up the grill in his one-of-a-kind, backyard Bubba Bistro.

But he’s not just cooking—he’s storytelling too. From mythical places like the Four Hole Swamp to tales about jumping frogs and the true hometown of The Simpsons, Chef Bubba Joe’s adventures are almost true... which makes them all the more fun.

So come ride with our favorite Bubba. Cook what he’s cooking. Laugh a little louder. And don’t forget to try some of his secret ingredients to make your food fare truly original!

Every recipe I’ve tried has been a hit! Love the humor and charm of this blog.
