Owner / CEO / Author
Jimmy Stovall started working at Corky’s BBQ in Memphis in 1994, beginning in the drive-thru and working his way up to general manager. He eventually became the owner and CEO of Corky’s. He helped bring Corky’s to a national audience through QVC, where he now hosts his own recurring show and became the top BBQ seller on TV. Seeing a need for better shipping and marketing for food brands, he founded Prime Time Strategic Partners, which now ships over 1.2 million packages a year. Jimmy has cooked for celebrities, written a best-selling cookbook, and earned many awards, including “Face of Memphis BBQ for 2020.” Today, he leads 14 companies, serves on charity boards, and shares his love of food and people through his podcast, Ribbin’ with Jimmy.
