Out here, under open skies and around the fire, you start to understand just how much has been given.

Today’s a quiet reminder that grace shows up in ways we don’t always see… in second chances, in the road ahead, in the people gathered around our table.

We don’t take that lightly.

Grateful for the opportunity to keep doing what we love, to share it with others, and to walk this path with a little more purpose.

Happy Easter from Trail Feast.

“Chad White has a rare gift, and it isn’t just the food — though the food absolutely delivers.

When we set out to build our Alton dinner series, the goal was simple: make it nothing like a stuffy winemaker dinner. More energy, more personality, more fun. Finding a partner who actually shares that vision — not just executes a menu — is harder than it sounds. Chad is that partner.

He works the fire and the room, touching tables, pulling guests into conversations, making a five-course open-fire dinner feel less like a catered event and more like a gathering with someone you’ve known for years. For our “Wine Camp” summer dinner, he showed up in vintage western wear he’d sourced from a local shop for himself and his co-chef. Nobody asked him to do that. That’s just Chad — he goes all in on the concept, brings the fun, and creates the energy wherever he goes. Weeks after the event, guests were still reaching out to tell us how much they loved the night. That kind of impression is hard to manufacture. With Chad, it just happens.

We’ve now had the privilege of hosting him out at Alton twice — most recently for our “Adult Summer Camp” Chef Spotlight Dinner — and what keeps bringing us back is the creativity and curation he pours into every menu. The food is bold, beautifully executed, and thoughtfully composed across every course. It’s not just impressive, it’s intentional. You can taste the consideration behind it.

There’s also something genuinely inspiring about watching someone step away from running restaurants to build something entirely, uniquely their own. As fellow entrepreneurs, we have deep respect for that kind of clarity of vision. Trail Feast feels like Chad in the best possible way — the adventure, the fire, the craft, the warmth. Getting to be a small part of that story is one of our favorite things about working with him.

If you have the opportunity to bring Chad and Trail Feast into your world, take it. You won’t regret it.”

As our convoy of 10 vehicles approached Palouse Falls in Washington state, it was not the 200-feet-tall waterfall that got our attention at first, but a decked-out Jeep Gladiator turned into a chef’s kitchen serving the most mouth-watering sandwiches while parked on the side of the trail.
What Chad & Trailfeast does is not just cooking food in the wild. It is much more than that. From cooking Argentinian steaks with fresh Chimichurri in the cold mountains of Montana to quickly whipping up healthy Mediterranean Harvest Bowls at a roadside stop in Stanley, Idaho, he is a true professional of the trade. 
Over the week the ARB team spent with Chad, we could not have asked for a better selection of meals, flavor profiles, and world cuisine options. Every evening, after long days of driving, when everyone sat hungry-eyed around the campfire, Chad night after night delivered some of the most memorable dinners cooked from scratch. He truly made ARB 4x4’s 50th Anniversary trip into something special.
And last but not least, while the food experience of Trailfeast is exceptional, Chad himself is one of the most genuinely positive and fun-loving people to be around. He covered hundreds of late-night miles with us without a single complaint, wheeled as hard as anyone on the trails, always had enough food & drinks for our group, and had a blast with the crew. Can’t recommend his services enough! 10/5 Google stars

“It was one of the best decisions we made as he brought zero ego, high-level cuisine and killer ex*****on at every event last season. Chef Chad understood our audience, collaborated deeply on the menu, and truly helped to elevate the overall experience.”

There’s a confidence and authenticity to how he runs Trail Feast that builds trust instantly. You know you’re in good hands from the first conversation. If you’re looking for an outdoor culinary experience that feels elevated but still grounded, creative but never forced Trail Feast is it.

Can’t recommend Chad and Trail Feast enough.

Honored to have supported the executive leadership summit at Rubicon Springs in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.

At Trail Feast, our mission has always been simple: deliver world-class hospitality in places most people would never attempt it. This gathering brought together leaders from across the automotive and off-road industries in one of the most remote and demanding environments in the country — exactly the kind of challenge that fuels our team.

I’m deeply grateful to the President & CEO of Masor Performance for the trust and for these generous words:

“Tucked away in the Sierra Nevada mountains at Rubicon Springs base camp, Chef Chad White of Trail Feast created an unforgettable culinary experience for our executive leadership summit… His contribution didn’t just complement the event, it defined it.”

Proud of our crew for executing at a high level in true backcountry conditions.

If your brand or leadership team is looking to create meaningful, high-impact experiences in the wild, we’d love to connect.
