Sam The Cooking Guy Says Get A Knife – Also Slap Boxing Dec 05, 2019

Show notes

(December 3, 2019 - Hour Two) In the 2nd hour I will be joined by the other first Tuesday of the month guest, and a BBQ Central Show Hall of fame guest, Sam The Cooking Guy. If you know Sam and how our segments usually go, while I do make an intricate agenda each time in, it usually goes sideways pretty quick and rarely gets back on track! However, let me set the agenda upfront so we can all keep score on how much we get through. Topics include: his latest Beyond Burger escapade, the cheeseburger taco recipe, how he celebrates the Holidays, what items he is telling people to buy this year, what's on the Holiday menu, trends for 2020 and what happened to his podcast!

If you are a fan of this show then you are fully aware. Monday and today, Weber has been doing an official launch of their "SmokeFire" pellet cooker at the corporate office in Illinois with a good handful of social media influencers. Of course the initial response has been positive but how did this cooker come to market and why has it taken this long for Weber to enter into this segment? We will also learn what separates the SmokeFire from the rest of the pellet cookers on the market. We will also cover sizes available, price points and availability! BBQ Central Show Sponsors!
