Malachi Jenkins (@trapkitchenofficial_) and Roberto Smith (@trapkitchen_news) are childhood friends from neighboring rival gangs, brought together by their two passions: food and girls. Today, they are the cofounders and owners of Trap Kitchen. The underground culinary experience was completely fueled off Instagram. Their colorful past has made them media darlings, having appeared on the Today show, Martha & Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party, VICE, Fox 11 News, and BET. Their popular Instagram pages feature videos of them cooking as well as some of their recipes and have over 200K followers.
Q: What first triggered your interest in cooking? Do you remember your first cooking memory?
We were motivated by trying to find a way to transition from being in the streets to being more progressive with our lives. We wanted to make our families and the people around us proud of our accomplishment.
Q: If you had to describe your cooking style, what would it be? (Besides absolutely delicious!)
Our cooking style is free format. I say this because we can go anywhere with it. We like to be challenged and to incorporate food from different cultures.
Q: Do you all have any cookbooks in your collection that you turn to for inspiration?
We really like, From Crook to Cook by Snoop Dogg, shout out to Snoop Dogg, Trejo’s Tacos by Danny Trejo*, Bludso’s BBQ Cookbook by Kevin Bludso and Jubilee by Toni Tipton Martin
*Note Danny Trejo has Trejo’s Cantina: Snacks, Cocktails, and Amazing Non-Alcoholic Drinks from the Heart of Hollywood slated for release in April.
Q: What is the best part of your job? Do you sometimes feel like working with food all day keeps you from wanting to get creative in the kitchen?
Working with food is like being in our happy place. It brings peace and allows us to figure out new ways to perfect recipes.
Q: What is your go to for a quick dinner – quick dessert?
We love Tacos for dinner and home-made cookies for dessert.
Q: Tell us about your cookbooks or any future projects you are working on?
