This week on Hot Grease Nicole sat down with a couple of jerks...Chris Woehrle and Robert Stout, the Jerky Guys from Kings County Jerky and winners of the audience favorite award at the Next Big Small Brand awards. The boys talked up the chewy and delicious world of sustainable beef jerky and how their tiny company is expanding to store shelves everywhere. Plus Marty Marsh and Shelly Rogers came by to discuss their film "Whats Organic About Organic?", a documentary that cuts through the trendy buzzwords and explains exactly why organic food is the answer to the many, many scary problems created by the industrial food system.
