Bradley Robinson started cooking BBQ as a break from other work. Now his whole life revolves around it. He makes the pits that people use to smoke. His recipes are growing on YouTube every week. You can eat the food he cooks at Leroy and Lewis. You can even join the Leroy and Lewis Patreon to get all the info behind their entire menu.

Thank you for being patient in this unprecedented time. I'm working on getting the show consistent again and I appreciate all the support through everything! Stay tuned for more from Best BBQ.

#142 Backline Fabrication May 18, 2020

Show notes

Thanks for listening to the show. I hope you are all safe and at home. This week’s episode is with Ryan Newland. He’s one of the last people I interviewed before the COVID-19 an important part of the BBQ community.

From Bangers to Liberty to Estrada’s BBQ he’s making all kinds of tools for the BBQ cook. I spent a few weeks hanging in his shop and if you want to see the footage subscribe right now to the youtube channel and you’ll be notified when I post it.

Unlike many of my other interviews there was no smokey smell. We were in a room full of metal and tools. There was a bit of that ozone smell you get from a welder hanging in the air. He has a ton of equipment, a forklift, empty tanks, cutting, welding and bending tools.

We sat down next to a giant propane tank that was on it’s way to becoming the shop pit for Backline. If you check the Backline Fabrication Instagram you can see pictures of all the pits they’ve made including the newest shop pit.

His shop is also unique because they throw a party every time a pit is finished. Ryan loves the community and even brings in local cooks to make the food for his events.

I’ll take any excuse to go out to the Texas hill country. Driving the windy roads west of Austin is a nice break from the city. I hope you enjoy this long conversation with Ryan Newland of Backline Fabrication.

#140 2M Smokehouse MEGASODE Mar 09, 2020

Show notes

2M Smokehouse has been on the show before. They're a great group of dudes who cook fire food every week for their loyal and new customers. Every one who walks through that door is getting a treat. It's even made me consider moving to San Antonio if Austin starts getting wack.

I've been wanting to push the limits of an episode and these guys were the best. Over two hours of talking about BBQ, life and the amazing scene we are in. Since we recorded this Esaul was actually nominated for a James Beard Award. This is a guy who was so committed he slept in the pit room in the early days. He has put in the work and gotten recognition for it. He has also helped create one of the most fun atmospheres in BBQ. I could have spent two more hours talking to them and we'll be hanging out again soon I'm sure.

Make sure to follow these guys:
