His demeanor has been compared to that of an NFL commentator, and is best described as a "love it or hate it" attitude. However, most people who actually watch him and learn from him find him very entertaining and informative. HostRainford was born in St Andrew, Jamaica November 30, 1966. Rainford is quoted saying "as for Canada, I guess after being buried under snow for 6 months we all just want to get outdoors and party". His interest in food began with his mother and grandmother. In 1994 Rainford enrolled in culinary school at George Brown College and after completing his formal training, began his professional career at the Kensington Kitchen, then onto Accolade/Crown Plaza. In 1999 he left Accolade and went to Senses to work with Chef Ned Bell. Today Rainford is a teacher and chef instructor at George Brown College Continuing Education Program.Rainford has a philosophy when it comes to the barbecue: "It's pretty simple. Just start with the freshest ingredients you can find and then you've got two choices: long slow cooking over low indirect heat, or red hot and smokin' for fast grilling. If you cook low and slow then you can use all sorts of rubs and smoking agents to infuse the food with a depth of flavour you just can’t get out of an oven. As for high heat grilling, your barbecue puts out way more heat than your stovetop so you can get that wonderful charring and searing, just like in a restaurant."
