Today's guest is Michael Kiolbassa, President of Kiolbassa Sausage in San Antonio. We sit down at their production facility and chat about the founding of the company in 1949, Michael's transition to President and his grand ambitions for the brand, the implementation of the open book management philosophy and the myriad of ways that philosophy has improved the company, their commitment to crafting authentic, small-batch smoked meats, and how Michael took a local sausage shop and built it into one of the premier smoked meats companies in the United States. Enjoy.
