6 Questions with Chef Charles, Owner/Operator of Lil' Chuck's Grubox

When did you decide you wanted to become a chef? 

When I was a student at Detroit Public School's Hally Middle School, I presented a project on a career as a chef for my career day project. But I loved to cook even before that, ever since I was a little kid.


What's your food philosophy?

You've got to have passion to be a chef! You have to have a real love for creating good food as well as eating good food. If your heart's not in your cooking, it will definitely show! 


What made you decide to invest in a food trailer?

I wanted a mobile way to provide great food and great service to the community.


You have a degree from the prestigious Culinary Institute of America in New York. You could have been a chef anywhere. What made you return to Detroit?

I love my city! I wanted to take everything I learned in New York and bring it back to my home, my roots. I hope to encourage and inspire 

someone coming up after me. It's never too late to follow your dream!


Name 3 ingredients you can't live without.

Seasoning Salt, Garlic, and Hot Sauce!


Name 3 tools you've got to have in your kitchen.

A sharp set of knives, a good cutting board, and a cast iron skillet!
