About the Chef
Humberto "The Chori-Man" Raygoza, a 4th generation artisan chorizo maker. After years of learning his craft from his Dad and uncles back in Zacatecas, Mexico he decided to start his own business. His journey began in West L.A. and took him to his current brick and mortar in San Pedro, CA.
In March 2013, he launched "The Chori-Man Artisan Chorizos & Sausages." When he first started, he made 100 lbs every three months and sold his product door to door from a little cooler on wheels, which he named The Chori-Mobile.
His partnerships began with Del Rey Deli Co., The Federal Bars in Long Beach and North Hollywood, and the Hudson House and have now grown to a partnership with over 20 amazing restaurants, boutique markets, and distributors in the greater Los Angeles.
