In this episode of BizBlend, we sit down with William 'Bill E.' Stitt, founder of Bill E’s Bacon, to uncover how a teenage hobby of curing and smoking bacon turned into a nationally recognized, music-infused food brand. From his roots in the South to navigating hurricanes, COVID-19, and the grind of entrepreneurship, Billy shares how patience, persistence, and culture shaped his business.


Listeners will discover how storytelling, music, and community became as essential to Bill E’s bacon as the recipe itself, and what it takes to turn passion into a brand that resonates far beyond the kitchen. Whether you’re a food lover, entrepreneur, or someone chasing a dream, this conversation offers real insights on grit, creativity, and building a brand with soul.
