Jo Irizarry is an investor and mentor in the modern Texas barbecue scene, best known for backing nationally acclaimed concepts like Barbs-B-Q and butcher shop and restaurant Thorn & Bred. As an early believer in Barbs-B-Q, Jo helped support pitmaster Chuck Charnichart and the team as they transformed a bold, pop-culture-infused vision for barbecue into one of the most talked‑about restaurants in Texas, earning national accolades and a James Beard nomination along the way. At Thorn & Bred, Jo brings that same mix of business savvy and heart for hospitality to a new generation of chefs and makers, focusing on spaces that celebrate community, creativity, and the evolving story of Texas food.
