Kurt talks with Waylon Weatherford about his humble start into BBQ after watching BBQ Pitmasters and joining backyard with a friend, how he cooks a brisket and finding your own way, the importance of social media in terms of getting sponsorship, how to grow the sport of BBQ, what drew him to drum cookers and how he manages four fires, four meats, and four timelines, how and where he sleeps at competitions, advice for new competitors and those who just want to be better BBQrs, and a couple great at home grilling recipes.

“If you can afford to take a class, you’re gonna skip to the head of the line, you’re gonna cut out a lot of time in learning that would have to be learned with experience.”
