The owner of Big Daddy Red’s is a combat war veteran who bravely battles PTSD. His journey led him to discover a profound passion for cooking, and he now shares his culinary skills to empower youth in combating mental illness through self-care and the joy of preparing meals.

Big Daddy Red’s, the official food sponsor of Rise IPL, helps families connect and have a blast in the kitchen. Their culinary expertise extends to cooking for esteemed institutions such as Clark Atlanta, Alabama State University, radio stations, mayors of major cities, school district cookouts, and high-profile celebrity events, including those featuring Nick Cannon, to name just a few.

We cordially invite students to share their cooking videos with us for posting on our Instagram–with the permission of their parents. We also welcome parents to reach out to us for information about upcoming events. Periodically, we’ll unveil new recipes and exciting dishes that Big Daddy Red’s and his crew are whipping up. Join us on this journey of self-care through the pleasure of savoring new culinary delights, enjoying positive company, and exploring fresh atmospheres.
