David grew up on his grandfather's farm. As a kid, David became interested in BBQ and started practicing the art of BBQ in his early teens. He attended University of Auburn and studied finance and accounting. He got his start in the restaurant industry at Amsterdam Café in Auburn, where he eventually turned that restaurant around financially, starting with re-engineering the menu. He soon moved on to open his own restaurant, Acre, in 2013. Acre is named such because it sat on a full acre of land which was farmed and provided food for the restaurant itself. Later, in 2018, David opened Bow & Arrow, a southern Texas-style BBQ joint mixed with Alabama potluck style food gatherings. David and his concepts have won or been nominated for many industry awards, including James Beard.</p> <h2>Show notes…</h2> <h3>Calls to ACTION!!!</h3> <ul> <li>Join <a href= "https://www.restaurantunstoppablenetwork.com/plans/47357?bundle_token=17a3bdca1ccbc19303dff68d05df5ab2&utm_source=manual">Restaurant Unstoppable Network</a> and get your first 30 days on me!  Connect with my past guest and a community of superfans.</li> <li>Subscribe to the <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJSERtxnAE3V7T9PQ19w_Og">Restaurant Unstoppable YouTube Channel</a></li> <li>Join the private <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/groups/493649961457862/">Unstoppable Facebook Group</a></li> <li>Join the email list!
