Microwave Your Steaks | Smoke, Fire, and Resilience: Holiday Celebrations and BBQ Community Triumphs
Welcome to the latest episode of "This Week in Barbecue," your go-to source for everything sizzling in the world of BBQ. In this episode, we're excited to announce that Fox Bros is now taking holiday catering orders, perfect for adding a smoky touch to your festive feasts. Tragedy has struck the BBQ community, with Helberg Barbecue in Woodway, Texas, losing its pitroom to a fire, and Matt Horn's Horn Barbecue in Oakland suffering a similar fate. We share how you can help these beloved establishments rebuild through their GoFundMe campaigns. On a more uplifting note, Rodney Scott's BBQ is set for significant expansion, including a 2024 Nashville location in collaboration with Eric Church, and upcoming spots in Miami, FL, and Hoover, AL. Angie Harris, head Pitmaster at Rodney Scott's Atlanta, is someone to watch in this growing empire. The episode also dives into the competitive spirit of BBQ with the Memphis in May Team Application Guide, preparing you for the event from May 15-18, 2024, at Liberty Park in Memphis, TN. We celebrate the success of Eddie Wright BBQ, which has received its second DoorDash grant in partnership with the NAACP. The episode stirs up some debate with 1ChefOnAMission's question about menu misinterpretation – is it on the customer or the owner? Gordon Ramsey gives us the raw truth about what it takes to start a restaurant, and it might not be what you're expecting. Don't miss Pitmaster Santa at Reformation Brewery in Smyrna on December 10th, and join us as we discuss a controversial cooking method – microwaving steaks. Tune in to this packed episode for a deep dive into the heart of BBQ culture, challenges, and celebrations.
