    While I always enjoy your podcasts, this episode fell off the rails for you guys. It’s apparent the episode didn’t go through any quality control before being posted. The audio really fell off the rails. I’m looking forward to hearing the next episode.

    Rick

    PS…I’m glad you’re much better Pitmasters than recording engineers! 😁

  • Could be five stars, but..

    I love listening to these guys. It is definitely informative if you’re into competition barbecue, which I am not. I really wish they would change the direction of the show a little bit instead of pure competition . I mean how many people out there are into competition compared to people that just cook in the backyard. I honestly enjoy, just listening to their chatter before the podcast start and generally just delete it after that. Sorry but that’s the truth..

  • Awesome Podcast and even better hosts.

    The knowledge and experience that Rusty and Anthony bring to the table is top notch. The featured guests are phenomenal. I love the comp guests but my favorite guests are the guys and gals that have a food trailer/truck. I am traveling that route and I am taking all of the knowledge and mistakes that are mentioned here to help my food truck life start out hopefully flawless, well small flaws are part of the learning curve.

    Keep up the great work and keep the podcasts coming.

  • Awesome Podcast

    I never miss an episode. Love the interviews, tips-and-tricks along with the updates on what’s happening in the BBQ world. Speaking of updates, any word on the November Backyard down in St. George this year. Love that event, I go every year. As a long time listener, Thank you both for all your hard work putting on the podcast. Keep it up , you two work good together.

Catching up! Kara with Scale and Tailor
Q: What have you been doing since the last time we talked with you because you have been doing a lot?
I've been doing the same thing, but it's just on a larger level.
Aaron Capenter LB's BBQ
Q: What about those mystery meat challenges? What are the unique meats you have had to work with?
We've had mystery meat challenges like using bison or spam, which is quite interesting and pushes competitors' creativity to adapt to those unexpected choices.
Aaron Capenter LB's BBQ
Q: Let's talk about how you got into barbecue, man. Coming from Texas, obviously, it's kind of in the bloodline, but let's talk about how you got into it personally.
I just started barbecuing with my dad when I was four or five years old. I learned to cook when I was about eight or nine and eventually went to culinary art school for a bit.
Jordan Davis founder of The Smoking Pastor Project
Q: How did you learn to cook? Where did the barbecue bug really come into play in all this?
I grew up a little bit in Texas and always wanted to cook. I realized that getting a bunch of guys around meat created a great atmosphere for connection and fun.
Jordan Davis founder of The Smoking Pastor Project
Q: Jordan, maybe you need to grow a beard.
No, maybe, my's bright red when I do, bright red.
