Brittney Taliferro known to her friend as Bizzle is a proclaimed self taught home chef. Growing up “Bizzle,” did not really enjoy or appreciate the skills and techniques that it took to create in the kitchen. Raised by her mother and grandmother, women who were considered morning people and Bizzle on the other hand, did not enjoy waking up early, especially not to help with cooking or chores. However, she still did help her mom and grandma on holidays and special occasions, when it was needed. So, some of her skills in the kitchen she can attribute to her mother and grandmother for. Bizzle did not learn to fully cook or rather enjoy cooking until she got older and got her first apartment and did not have her mother to make her comfort meals. That is when it all begin.
In her early 20's, Bizzle started cooking more and was excited to try new recipes and techniques in the kitchen. She would go on YouTube and Pinterest and conjure up some new recipe almost every week. She would use those sites as a reference and then put her own spin on what others were doing with their recipes. BIzzle reflects on her first time making mac and cheese, which she is now one her signature recipes and dishes. It was in 2013, she called her mother and asked her what exactly should she use to make this baked macaroni and cheese, that was one of her favorite dishes growing up. She remembered most of the ingredients, but it was her first time actually making it herself, so she was nervous. She went to the market and got the ingredients, but mistakenly brought imitation cheese instead of the real deal, which in her opinion, ruined it for her. The mac and cheese was not to her standards, which some would say are extremely elevated. Nonetheless, she went back to the drawing board and mastered that mac and cheese and the rest is history. Her famous mac and cheese is now a top seller amongst her customers and clients and she intends on putting that on her restaurant menu that she plans on opening next year.
Many wonder, how did the Brittney get the name Bizzle. Funny story - Bizzle loves trap music and would like to one day be a chef to the rappers, notably her favorite rapper, Gucci Mane. Bizzle acknowledges that she can’t rap, unless her only competition is 21 savage, but she jokes about it and even had a friend create her a mixtape cover as if she would be dropping some hot new music soon. So, Bizzle is her mock rap name and instead of putting up a hot 16 in the studio she takes her skills into the kitchen while listening to the trap music that she loves so much. So that is how the name Bizzle’s Kitchen came about.
