Episode 466: Sibte Hassan of BK JANI - Brooklyn, NY. The MIDAS OF MEAT. The Pakistani-American Dream. From Design Lights to Burger Delights at Night. What is GIVING BACK in OUR COMMUNITIES?

Join us as Justin Bizzarro hosts another engaging episode of the JUSTIN AND THE [FOOD] ENTREPRENEURS Show, where we explore the fascinating journey of Sibte Hassan, the founder of BK Jani, a unique halal burger eatery in Brooklyn, New York.

Discover how Sibte, originally an animator and designer, transitioned into the food industry out of a love for quality food and personal ambition. From facing challenges in understanding restaurant operations to crafting a menu that includes halal burgers, lamb chops, and fried chicken sandwiches, Sibte shares his experiences, the importance of halal practices, and how he builds value through genuine relationships and customer engagement.

Sibte Hassan has been called the "Midas of Meat" by the New York Times for his culinary skills, particularly with meat dishes. He draws inspiration from the flavors of Lahore, Pakistan, where he's originally from, to create authentic and unique dishes.

 The restaurant, BK Jani, started in Bushwick, Brooklyn and has expanded, including an outpost in Manhattan. BK Jani is known for its Jani Burger, lamb chops, and other Pakistani dishes, all made with high-quality, halal meat and unique spice blends. Following a battle with COVID-19, Sibte Hassan has shown a commitment to giving back to the community by donating hundreds of meals weekly through various organizations

Tune in to learn about perseverance, community, and the pursuit of passion in entrepreneurship.
