Food, Music and Beer with Troy Johnson and Hilary Doneux

Dedicated to the Craft - A podcast by Ballast Point Brewing Company

Categories:

Jeff Lozano and Colby Chandler (virtually) sit down with 91X Music Director, Hilary Doneux, and writer/food critic/television personality, Troy Johnson. Hilary reflects on her 20+ year career in music and radio, and her recent behind-the-scenes BP tour with Colby. Troy discusses his journey from music journalist to Food Network personality on Guy’s Grocery Games. The group discusses pairing beer with music and food, and how Troy’s poetry minor shaped how he approaches his day job. Later, Ballast Point Miramar Sous Chef, Chuy Hernandez returns to the show with his rendition of Troy’s guilty pleasure: Jack in the Box double cheese burger, which he aptly named the “Morgan Freeman” of double cheeseburgers. Recommended pairing: Manta Ray Double IPA.
