Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast, Episode 280: 1st-time American Royal teams

The world’s largest BBQ competition is coming up in a few weeks. The American Royal World Series of BBQ at Kansas Speedway brings together more than 400 teams, from all over the world, and on Episode 280 we have a roundtable discussion with three first-time Royal teams - Nicholas Owensby of Sailor Nick’s BBQ from Wadsworth, Ohio; Jamie Mintz from Casual Smokers in Spartanburg, S.C.; and Jim St. Gemme of The Burnt Crow out of St. Louis. We get some background from each about their BBQ journeys and find out their expectations about the first experience at the American Royal.

We also check in with Charlie Wallace from The Grill Guys of Missouri with the latest news from the Republic, Mo., BBQ supply store and their recent road trip to the headquarters of Big Green Egg in Atlanta.
