Miguels Pizza and the Red River Gorge: A Climb Built on Hard Work and Heart

Miguels Pizza began as a quiet roadside restaurant, but as Kentucky's Red River Gorge grew into a worldwide climbing mecca, Miguels evolved into an outdoor enthusiast hub. In this episode, Dario Ventura, the son of founder Miguel Ventura, shares what it was like growing up meeting people from around the world and watching the Gorge transform. Today, he carries his father's legacy forward with a new venture, Red Point Barbeque. It's a story of a family from Portugal who worked incredibly hard, welcomed visitors and helped build one of the world's most beloved outdoor communities.
