Elias Cairo joins us on a meaty podcast. He takes us on this journey from working at his family's restaurants in Utah to Switzerland, where his apprenticeship there gave him a base of knowledge to hone his skills at places like Castagna in Portland. Eli takes us through some of the challenges and his personal joys of establishing Olympia Provisions, the USA's only USDA certified salami production facility.  We also talk about his other business interests.
