From a rib-loving kid in Chicago to the founder of a national restaurant empire, Dave Anderson’s story is a masterclass in persistence, vision, and flavor. Known as “Famous Dave,” he built more than a barbecue joint—he created a lifestyle brand that became part of America’s dining culture.

In this episode, Dave shares how a childhood memory sparked his passion, why he ignored the doubters who said barbecue would never work in Wisconsin, and the secret to building customer experiences people can’t stop talking about. With nearly 200 restaurants worldwide and products in grocery stores nationwide, his journey proves one thing: never give up on your dream.
