Chef Cassidee Dabney: reflects on being terrified of becoming the Executive Chef of The Barn at Blackberry Farm (S10/Ep.07)

Published on: 4th September, 2024

Cassidee Dabney is the Executive Chef of The Barn at Blackberry Farm, one of the most renowned culinary destinations in the U.S. We learn her path to leading a world-class kitchen team and she shares the one must-have item every cook should own. We dive into The Barn’s menu and its hyper-local “Foothills Cuisine®” of Appalachia- a cuisine inspired by the freshest seasonal ingredients and produce grown just steps away from the kitchen. Cassidee also talks about her commitment to community, including her volunteer work with food-related projects at Boys & Girls Clubs and her efforts to support Share Our Strength through fundraising dinners. Enjoy this episode as we go Beyond the Plate… with Chef Cassidee Dabney.
