Known for his signature greeting, “What’s crackalackin?” Morris has built a brand that blends farming, butchery, and media influence. His latest venture, Between the Ribs, expands his reach beyond Central Florida, offering a unique perspective on current events, agriculture, and everyday life.Morris’ journey has been marked by resilience and determination. Once a millionaire, he faced financial hardship, only to rebuild his life and business alongside his wife of 29 years and their eight children. For the past 17 years, he has been a staple in the Orlando area, supplying high-quality meats and vegetables through his farm and local farmers’ markets.

Morris has received numerous recognitions, from high school football teams and band programs to city hall, for his involvement in local initiatives. However, accolades have never been his goal. His priority has always been serving the people—whether by ensuring they have access to quality food or by offering his unfiltered insights on the world.Morris' outspoken nature and engaging personality caught the attention of Florida Man Radio, where he hosted his own show, drawing a loyal following.

Unlike conventional butcher shops that source meat from distributors, Morganic Meats offers customers products raised by Morris himself or trusted local farmers. This transparency and dedication to quality have solidified his reputation as a trusted name in the industry.Through Between the Ribs, Morris continues to educate and entertain, blending humor with hard-hitting discussions on agriculture, self-sufficiency, and the realities of modern food production. He believes in delivering “no-holds-barred” content, making his platform a go-to source for those seeking real, unfiltered information.His influence extends beyond farming and media, as he remains deeply committed to giving back.
