Episode 239

Taking you back to 8/6/2013 – This week featuring a discussion with old friends of the show, Michael McDearman and South Carolina BBQ legend, Jack Waiboer. Back in 2013, Mc D and Jack were on an episode of BBQ Pitmasters and this segment finds us talking about their time on the show. If I am not mistaken, this was also a rare occasion where I had a real live in-studio guest! MC D was on the Sam’s Club tour at the time doing the Beef demo…and there was a local Sam’s event in Canton, OH…so I actually went out there and met up with Michael and that’s also where I met a number of other teams in person. The highlight for me was getting to hang out with the late/great Robert Magee from Munchin’ Hogs at The Hilton (Q39 Founder) for a few hours and sampling the turn ins…that was the first time I ever had real money muscle medallions…and they were incredible!! Holding that aside, what you’ll hear in this segment is some really great discussion and insight from two guys that were ON the show giving their real experience…

Episode 238

Taking you back to 6/12/2018 – This week featuring our pal Daniel Vaughn from Texas Monthly. You might recall, from time to time on this show, we talk about “being courageous”…but where did that come from? Well, back in 2018, Daniel Vaughn was a guest and he is the one who coined the phrase “I thought you were courageous on this show”…or something along those line…and, like many things on this show that are cool, it STICKS forever…so if you weren’t around for it the first time, here is a look back into a piece of show history and how it happened in the actual conversation. We actually talked a bit about the “purposeful undercooking of steaks in America” project I did with the EC’s as well…and he took a dump on the temperature we picked to use as a guide…We all know that Daniel is a fancy boy!

Show notes

(July 12, 2022 – Hour Two)

10:14pm & 10:35pm – After an unrealized (then realized) chase over the past 3 years or so I finally land, not one, but two segment with famed writer, sportsman and food enthusiast, Larry Olmsted! Larry is a best selling author (of all the best sellers lists), writes for the biggest news outlets today and has definitive views on where the world of food and BBQ sit today. Since it’s Larry’s first time on the show tonight, we will build the segment from the ground up, getting a good understanding of where Larry came from, what his culinary pillars were growing up and how he has developed into one of the most respected food/sports writers of our time. He is also one of the most well traveled guests on this show, second to only Steven Raichlen. Join me for what promises to be an instant classic and should find us visiting again on a regular basis.
