Red was a renowned farmer, BBQ king of Kern County, seasoning entrepreneur, and friend to all.
He barbecued for many organizations: The Boy Scouts of America, The Fish and Game, the local Moose
Lodge, Shriners club, different schools, churches, and other charities, he developed and is best known
for the different flavors of his seasonings: Shepherd’s Seasoning. In the beginning, he started the
company by mixing different spices together using a cement mixer and then selling to local family,
friends, farmers, and ‘Mom and Pop’ stores where he lived in the Greenfield/Old River area of
Bakersfield. Since 1960, the business has grown from its humble beginnings to being sold from
supermarkets as large as the Vons grocery stores.

Gift Pack
There is a ritual here in Bakersfield (we suspect we are not the only city). As soon as the weather goes from winter to 90 degrees (this usually takes about two days) every restaurant and bar with a snippet of outdoor space haul’s their chairs and tables outside. People come out in droves to eat outside and lift their faces to the sun. The first nice weekend of this weather EVERYONE lights the grill. Get your Gift Pack today and get grilling!
