We will also give out thoughts on the new Beyond Meat “Seared steak tips” that were recently released to see how they stack up to normal meat. Would you try it?? Have you tried one or both??

9:14pm – After WEEKS (dare I say months) of hyping it, the time has finally arrived!! Tonight we lead the show off with the hotly anticipated “$200 Peppermill Grind-Off”!! Good friend of the show, Dr. BBQ, joins me to put the Pepper Cannon and The Black Rain grinders to the test to see which unit sits atop the $200 peppermill grinder category! Yes, there is a $200 peppermill category…does it relate to you?? Maybe…maybe not. Nevertheless, Ray and I will grind our faces off for your potential consumer benefit! By the way, what could be better than giving one of these to a loved one during the holiday season…make sure you make the right pick!

9:35pm – After Ray, we will be joined by the “Bristly BBQ Journalist” and the creator of Derrickriches.com, Derrick Riches. Derrick and I will talk about last second turkey tips, blue steaks and temping pork ribs internally. Have you ever thought about taking the internal temps of your ribs?? I started doing it recently and it had really helped add consistency to my end product!

Episode 255

Taking you back to 2012 – This time we feature a BBQ legend…the guy who created the Fast Eddy Cooker…Ed Maurin. In this particular cut, Ed and I spend time talking about the Jack Daniels BBQ competition and why there continues to be such reverence, such mystique, such romance and such preference given when I have asked pitmasters about their thoughts on this event…I think about the Royal and I have always considered the Royal to be the real “elite” contest because there is no restriction or anyone being left out…but there is on the Jack side of things…and maybe that’s what makes it even more special to the pitmasters….any way, Eddy is always a great guest…and by the way…he has introduced a new line of BBQ pellet to the market so I will be looking to get him on the show soon to talk about that.

Episode 254

Taking you back to 9/30/2015 – This time we feature a guest from way back, Jen Brand from, at the time, Brand Solutions. We were talking about the American Royal and while at that time, things seemed like they would never change, boy have they ever, as it relates to the BBQ event. In this segment we were discussing, flippantly, did we ever think this event would decline in attendance…and we both thought no…but over the years, it certainly has! The number of teams attending has certainly gone done…especially in the covid years. The location has since changed 3 or 4 different times…I never thought that would happen…the date has changed a few times…It’s always fun to see what pans out over the years

If you have a ceramic cooker, you will be interested to hear all about this tool and how it might change your life for the better.

Each year (now the 4th iteration) they release (50) of these beauties to the market and they are sold within 24-36 hours. These watches have a special place in history and RT will tell us all about it. There will also be a highly limited number of “Special” military watches this year. If you have seen the ones in the past, these will surely surpass those for demand! I might just have to add one of these to my slowly growing watch collection…they are awesome!

Episode 253

Taking you back to 12/17/2013 – This bringing a close to the 5 weeks of the 2022 BBQ Central Show Guest Hall of Fame Class members…and closing it down is Jon Solberg’s pick for this year’s class…the “former” pitmaster of Warren County Pork Choppers, Donny Bray of Bowling Green Kentucky. This segment was recapping the TOTY race Donny and Tim Grant were locked up in at that point in time…this is also the segment where we hear Donny Bray utter the classic line “The sun don’t shine up one dog’s ass all the time.” Donny says, on record, that he choked away that contest…and then recounts the year and the pressure he was under at that time. His honesty in this interview was very refreshing and you can easily see why Jon made such an impassioned plea to get Donny into the Guest Hall of Fame this year. Donny has been out of the competition scene for a number of years…he did mention he MIGHT get back into it but we’ll ask him all about it when he comes on the show…currently slated 12/6 as we close out the year.
