| When Bobby Flay Cooked on the Chuck Wagon | Behind the Scenes of Reality Cooking TV | 29 Mar 2026 | 00:37:26 | |
I never wanted to be on TV. I just wanted to cook for cowboys. But one phone call, while on a ranch, changed all of that. This is how I went from a cowboy ranch cook, to cooking on national TV. I was standing in a pasture in North Texas when a car pulled up mid-shot and Bobby Flay walks right into my scene. I didn't know who he was. Didn't know he was coming. All I knew was my wood stove was loaded, it was 95 degrees, and we were about to find out how tough Bobby Flay really was. WATCH or LISTEN: | |||

I've been a chuckwagon cook for over thirty years, and out on those remote ranches, I'm not just the cook - I'm the doctor, dentist, and psychologist too. In this episode, Shannon and I share some of our favorite cowboy cures: how a pre-1982 penny pulls the poison from a spider bite, why bacon grease belongs in every first aid kit, and the hot toddy recipe that's been quieting coughs since the cattle drive days. These old-time remedies have worked for generations, and we've got the stories to prove it. Disclaimer: We're not medical professionals — always consult a doctor for real medical concerns.

| 25 years of Bull Riding and This Ride Nearly Ended It All! | 14 Jun 2026 | 00:41:56 | |
Before I was feeding cowboys, I was riding bulls. For 25 years, I chased rodeos across the West — and this week I'm telling the full story. From my brother Randy's training methods, to my first calf roping. And then the night a bull put both front feet on my chest and I thought that was it. The most dangerous bull I ever drew.

| 30 Years Later, This Job Still Defines Me | Cooking Over Fire in the Middle of Nowhere | 07 Jun 2026 | 00:35:44 | |
Long before YouTube, cookbooks, and the chuck wagon, I took a job in New Mexico’s Gila Wilderness guiding elk hunters and serving as the camp cook. The truth is, I did not know much about outdoor cooking when I started, but necessity is a great teacher. Deep in the backcountry, cooking over an open fire for hungry hunters every day, I learned through trial and error what worked and what did not. Looking back, that trip changed the course of my life.

| When I Cooked for Alton Brown On Cutthroat Kitchen | 12 Jul 2026 | 00:45:27 | |
In this episode, I recap my appearance on Food Network's Cutthroat Kitchen (season 14, episode 5: "The Good, the Hash and the Ugly"), hosted by Alton Brown.

| The Truth Behind Building Cowboy Kent Rollins Brand | 19 Jul 2026 | 00:51:03 | |
What does it really take to build the Cowboy Kent Rollins brand? It wasn't one viral video or one lucky break.

We talk about turning down reality TV, filming with an iPhone, the biggest mistakes we made, and why consistency, faith, and authenticity mattered more than chasing trends. If you've ever wondered what happens behind the scenes of Cowboy Cooking, this is the conversation you've been waiting for. | |||

| Have We Forgotten How To Fix Things? - The Lost Art Of Figuring It Out! | 02 Aug 2026 | 00:42:10 | |
Have we forgotten how to fix things—or have we forgotten how to figure things out? Shannon and I talk about the practical skills that used to be passed down from generation to generation, from changing a flat tire and starting a fire to fixing whatever broke at the chuck wagon. But this conversation goes beyond practical know-how. We talk about problem-solving, self-reliance, faith, marriage, attitude, and what to do when the thing that needs fixing is something in your own life. Sometimes you don’t need to know the answer—you just need to be willing to figure it out. | |||
| Cowboy Coffee: Is it really that good - and why are millions obsessed with it? | 09 Aug 2026 | 00:43:49 | |
Cowboy coffee has always been about more than what’s in the cup. We’re digging into the history of cowboy coffee, what people get wrong about making it, and why coffee was such an important part of life around the chuck wagon. We also look back at the simple cowboy coffee video that reached more than 6.7 million people and became an unexpected part of our story. From cowboys and Arbuckles’ coffee to today’s coffee-shop culture, why do generations keep gathering around a cup of coffee? And what does the phrase “let’s have coffee” really mean? | |||
