About this episode

Chef Soulo also known as Derrick Bivens owner of Billionaire Burger Boyz took time out of his very hectic schedule to sit down and bless us with a gourmet budget friendly meal. He shares what the road to success looked like and kept it all the way real about how his story of pivots and mistakes led to his booming empire. If you have not had a Burger from this restaurant or truck I assure you, you are missing out. This interview delivers a mouthful of inspiration to fill your stomach. Born and raised in South Los Angeles, Chef Soulo is classically trained, award-winning chef and co-owner of the Billionaire Burger Boyz. After years spent working uninspiring jobs, graduating culinary school, and working in kitchens owned by world famous chefs such as Wolfgang Puck, he decided to branch out on his own. He started by doing meal prep and selling plates on street corners in Downtown Los Angeles until, eventually, he was able to get a food

truck of his own. Not only does this Food Truck Titan own multiple food trucks

and restaurants he’s a 2x time Champion of Guy’s Grocery Game and is the star

of his own tv show “Burger Truck Brawl.”
