Adrian is a scholar of African-American contributions to U.S. foodways. He is  the author of several books including Soul Food, won him a 2014 James Beard Foundation award, and The President's Kitchen Cabinet, for which he was nominated for the 2018 NAACP Image Award for outstanding literary work - nonfiction. He is also a self-proclaimed \"recovering lawyer\" and served as a White House advisor to US President Bill Clinton. \n\nI may be most excited to be talking about barbecue, because, as everyone knows, I just opened a barbecue restaurant with my partner, Josh Lee, and Adrian's writing a book on barbecue called \"Black Smoke: African-American United States of Barbecue\", which is to be released in April of 2021.
