Ep 4: Hill Meats CEO Jim Cheney - Meet The King Of Pork
Sunday morning sun, the sizzle and pop of hot pork fat clatters up from the kitchen, the thick, meaty smell wafts in, rousing you from dreams . . . Does a bacon breakfast turn Sunday blues into Sunday fun day? It sure does the job for Jim Cheney, CEO of Hill Meats Company.
Jim got his start in the meat business at the age of 18, and he’s mastered the industry ever since. After working on the kill floor, and working his way up to foreman and then to business owner, Jim became an expert at turning flailing meat businesses into thriving ones.
On this episode of No Bull Business (and Brews), hosts Jason and Steve get together with Hill Meats CEO Jim Cheney to hear his story and give listeners an inside look at the unique aspects of the meat packing industry. Hit play to meet Pendleton Oregon’s King of Pork.
