The BBQ Central Show – Détails, épisodes et analyse

(September 3, 2024 - Hour Two)

10:14pm - Leading off the 2nd hour is our pal and favorite YouTube food guy, Sam The Cooking Guy. It feels like it has been forever since Sam has been on...and, frankly, it has been! So tonight we will catch up on a number of topics to include cast iron skillets, Jollibee spaghetti and a number of questions when it comes to eating out a restaurants.



10:35pm - Closing the show tonight is my long time pal and show favorite, Steve Ray from Owl's Nest BBQ Supply. Steve and I have a shared interest in competitive food sport...mainly eating. Steve has covered this part of the industry extensively this year and tonight we break down the event that took place on Netflix yesterday afternoon. Billed as "Unfinished Beef", Netflix got Joey Chestnut and Kobayashi together in one room for 10 minutes to see who is the best hot dog eater in all the land. I don't want to spoil the results for you here, so if you didn't watch yesterday and you plan on catching it at some point in the next few days or week...don't listen to this segment...we will ruin it all for you!

(January 16, 2024 - Hour One)

9:14pm - The 2rd Tuesday bring new guests of many sorts. We lead off the interviews tonight with someone who has been in the BBQ Supply business in Wisconsin for the past 3 years. Mike Luce joins me to talk about why he got into it, what business has been like and what you want to consider if this is something you want to get into.

9:35pm - After Mike, I will be joined by 3rd Tuesday of the month regular guest, Wes Wright, from Cookout News (dot com). Plenty of new items have popped up over the past 4 weeks and we will get all the insight with Wes. Perhaps one of the most important items we will cover tonight is if ALL major grill/BBQ makers should be looking to go to CES first before any other industry/trade convention during the year going forward. CES happened last week, NBBQA happens between 1/31/2024-2/3/2024 (San Antonio) and HPBExpo happens 2/13/2024-2/15/2024 (Nashville). Which one really bring "the heat" for your dollar?
