Derrick Hayes Hopes to Build a Multi-Generational Legacy With Big Dave's Cheesesteaks

Derrick Hayes is the founder and CEO of Big Dave’s Cheesesteaks. The restaurateur turned his trajectory around after almost getting caught up in a life of crime, and built a multi-million dollar business that’s the embodiment of the American dream. He talks to Tamron about how his grandfather inspired his love for food, naming the restaurant after his father, and more.
