Rizzuto, Rizzuto, Rizzuto.
Rizzuto (2:04)
Shout out to our friends at Together Credit Union and the Pioneer Cafe for breakfast. The Pioneer Cafe in Kirkwood, my god.
Rafe (2:17)
What a way to start off the Weirdo sticker campaign and all Together Credit Union is doing with us, but they also, they know the way to our hearts.
Rizzuto (2:25)
Yeah, through our stomachs.
Rafe (2:27)
Holy smokes. Yeah, Scott from Pioneer Cafe dropped this off and I'm ripping through the Nashville hot chicken hash and I'm not sure I've had a better breakfast in a long, long time.
Rizzuto (2:38)
Yeah, I'm eating the Stellar Hog hash bowl. I love Stellar Hog and they got you a veggie one.
Lern (2:44)
It's so sweet. People are so thoughtful.
Rizzuto (2:45)
So Pioneer Cafe, downtown Kirkwood, locally owned breakfast and lunch cafe serves great food while creating opportunities for adults with disabilities. Their award-winning partnership with Lafayette Industries Step Up program combines hands-on restaurant training with the skills and confidence needed for competitive employment.
SPEAKER_8 (3:04)
So it looks awesome.
Rizzuto (3:05)
Amazing work they're doing to air too.
Lern (3:07)
Why are you sad?
Rafe (3:08)
Did you not get my onions and everything except for the Nashville hot and he can't do the hot stuff.
Lern (3:15)
Is it that hot?
SPEAKER_8 (3:16)
So whoever's in the building and listening, come on and get this kitchen sink out of here before I eat it anyway.
Rizzuto (3:23)
What's in the kitchen sink here? Bacon, ham, sausage, egg, red peppers, onions, cheddar finished with a ranch drizzle.
SPEAKER_8 (3:28)
Normalized onions too, double onions.
Rizzuto (3:31)
You got the veggie, that's egg, red peppers, tomatoes, onions, smoked gouda. Finished with a smashed avocado, Nashville hot chicken, crispy Nashville hot chicken, egg and dill pickles. Finished with the creamy hollandaise.
And that's Stellar Hog Hash, which I'm currently eating. Smoke pulled pork from Stellar Hog, which is amazing. Caramelized onions, red bell peppers, topped with sour cream, piccadagio, spicy lew or sweet Stella barbecue sauce. Crispy onion straws seasoned with the Stellar Hog rub. God!
Rafe (4:06)
Thank you Together Credit Union. Thank you Julie, thank you Scott.
Rizzuto (4:09)
And by the way, $2 from every Stellar Hog Hash sold in October benefits Operation Food Search. That's at the Pioneer Cafe.
Rafe (4:16)
Thank you for that.
Rizzuto (4:18)
We appreciate the grub guys. Thank you so much.
Scott (4:21)
Thank you Pioneer.
Rizzuto (4:22)
All right, so we've been sitting on this story for a long time and man, it's been months.
SPEAKER_8 (4:28)
I think it's been over a year.
I think you told me about this maybe over a year ago. But it's been a long time.
Rizzuto (4:36)
Cause my wife knows somebody who knows somebody. And it was, hey, keep this under your hat.
