Our 10th episode features the happiest guy in bbq, Mr. Luke Darnell Pitmaster for Old Virginia Smoke out of Bristow, VA. Luke has been competing in bbq for over 10 years, has over 150 contests completed, and has won multiple grands, RGCs and tons of top tens. We discuss what he loves and also doesn't like about competition bbq, why he does his popular podcast, and whats on his meat-specific playlists (spoiler one of them has N.W.A.) This one clocks in at 53 minutes and we think you'll enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording it. 

A nuclear safety technician during the week, a pitmaster going nuclear on the competition on the weekends, our 9th episode features Phillip Mason of the Fallout BBQ competition team out of Hartsville, SC. In this episode, we get to discuss his journey from a backyard cook to an award-winning KCBS pitmaster, the challenges he and his father have faced with their BBQ trailer recently, and his instructions on how to fully melt a turn-in box. Phillip is a very humble dude and we really enjoyed talking with him about BBQ competitions, and we are sure you will enjoy listening. The running time is 54 minutes. 

Our episode 8 guest is one of the most consistently winning pitmasters in the Carolina area, Mr. Jason Singletary, pitmaster of the Smoke Central bbq competition team out of Lake City, South Carolina. We talk with Jason about how he got started in the BBQ game, his racing roots, what drives him in competing, and hear about the one particular meat that he's never won a category with. Jason also spills the beans about how to win a sausage "anything butt" ancillary category with just sausage balls! Jason is a humble guy but he really dove into the podcast episode and we really enjoyed our talk, and we think you will also. Clocking in just under an hour at 57 minutes, you will really enjoy this episode.
