Partnering with Fire, Iron and Spice

Fire, Iron and Spice is a food‑first blog rooted in real cooking, real stories, and the slow, intentional process of building a small homestead in southern Colorado. This space blends chef‑level technique, family tradition, and hands‑on craftsmanship into something grounded and honest — a place where food and life meet.

If your brand values authenticity, resilience, and the kind of cooking that comes from both skill and heart, we’d love to explore working together.

What We Create

Food & Recipe Development

With more than two decades of professional cooking experience — from food trucks to catering to fine‑dining mentorship — I develop recipes that are approachable, reliable, and rooted in real technique. Every recipe is tested, refined, and written with clarity and intention.

Kitchen Gear Reviews

I offer straightforward, experience‑based reviews of tools, cookware, appliances, and products that support real home cooking. My audience values practicality, durability, and honest guidance.

Homestead & Build Content

As we build our small homestead from the ground up, I share the process in a way that’s real and useful. From the minimalist cargo‑trailer conversion to the early stages of the land build, this journey offers long‑term opportunities for brands aligned with:

• off‑grid living

• modular design

• construction tools

• outdoor cooking

• gardening

• rural lifestyle

This content is always secondary to the food — but it adds depth, story, and multi‑phase partnership potential.

Lifestyle Product Integration & Photography

I provide natural, real‑world photography of sponsored products as they’re used in our kitchen, homestead build, or daily life. This includes items like tools, equipment, off‑grid systems, outdoor gear, and other products that support our long‑term project.

These photos are created as part of our authentic workflow — not as standalone commercial photography services. Brands receive genuine, in‑context images of their products in use, integrated into the real story of our build.

Lifestyle Integration

Tess, my boxer and full‑time “supervisor,” appears naturally in our build and daily life content. She brings humor and personality without becoming the focus.

Ways We Can Work Together

Sponsored Posts & Recipe Development

Custom recipes, product‑focused cooking content, or sponsored blog posts that highlight your brand in a natural, story‑driven way.

Product Reviews & Features

Thoughtful, honest reviews of kitchen tools, appliances, outdoor gear, or homestead‑related products.

Long‑Term Partnerships

Multi‑phase collaborations tied to:

• the cargo‑trailer build

• the homestead build

• the outdoor kitchen

• the greenhouse and garden

• seasonal cooking projects

Affiliate Partnerships

If your brand offers an affiliate program, I’m open to integrating it into relevant posts, gear lists, and long‑term content.
