Thilborger’s philosophy about entertaining is pretty simple. You get a
whole heap more out of life when you add more spice, color and a tad
more effort into everyday things.
Chad will share his family recipes which consist mostly of Southern
dishes – but with a twist. He’ll also show viewers how to combine
cooking and entertaining as a way of bringing people together. Chad will
provide techniques, tips and recipes and loads of family stories sure
to make you think back to gatherings of friends and family that just
make you want to Dig In Y’all! But more than that, Dig In Y’all!
provides ways to help you make your own memories in the kitchen and
beyond.
Dig In! airs Sundays at 11:00am ET on SFL/CW and over the air on Channel 16 – Eye On South Florida
Chad
Thilborger is a Southern Louisiana boy transplanted to South Florida
over 10 years ago from New Orleans with deep roots in the heart of Cajun
Country. At 6’4”, he’s got a booming voice and even bigger laugh;
people always describe him as “larger than life.” But to family and
friends who really know him, his persona has little to do with his size
and much more to do with how he lives his life.
Chad is much more than just food; even though, preparation and enjoyment
of food plays a huge part. What else can you expect from a guy raised
in Southern Louisiana? His passion runs much deeper. It’s a way of life
learned from all the folks who impacted him: his parents, grandparents
Maw Maw & Paw Paw, Uncle Pat, Aunt Annie and Miss Diane. Because
Chad has so many wonderful memories and recipes, he was compelled to
write them down in the first cookbook, A Whole Heap of Goodness.
Currently Chad travels the United States and Europe telling his story,
cooking up some fun, and encouraging ordinary people to engage their
authentic heart and cook something extra ordinary their family will
love. Let go of inhibitions…be inspired…live and cook with passion!
In the past year Chad has been a featured motivational speaker as well
as a cooking demonstrator and a regular at Williams-Sonoma locations
where he is also a White Coat, offering expert advice at their main
stores, as well as appearing on the Financial News Network where he
gives demos and advice for busy families watching their budgets in the
kitchen. Chad has also made several visits as guest foodie on Rolonda
Watt’s live radio show “Sundays with Rolonda”
