Plum Luv Foods se 5 ep25 Matt Timms from The Takedowns

On this special Thursday night edition of Plumluvfoods we talk about kitchen remodeling and what does it mean to make your home kitchen a commercial kitchen and is it even possible? We also recap the Ny Hot Sauce Expo Judgnig process that took place monday night!We are joined by Ny's own Matt Tims the creator of "The Takedowns"...he Takedown blasted into existence in the winter of 2003 – in a little hovel somewhere in Brooklyn NYC. Everyone loves us, so the Takedown has quickly grown into an adult-sized event. The press is insane, and in it’s wake,  other cooking events across the country were more recently spawned, but the Takedown will always be the first and awesomest! Self-taught cooks bring in their brilliant creations and compete for money, prizes, and self respect. In NYC, events are held all over town, though the TDs tend to mostly go down at the Bell House these days…The TD is NATIONWIDE now- and happening in a city near you! Austin, Houston, Chicago, New Orleans, Nashville, Boston, St. Paul, Seattle, San Francisco… and MORE!!!But that’s not all! Takedowns are nutzos, and not necessarily chili:  Bacon, Fondue, Salsa, Lamb, Curry and even Cookie Takedowns!!!! Oo! And we have several really bad ideas coming up- also not chili related. Follow Matt on Insta @matttimmswins
