cooking show, and an acknowledged expert on smoking meat.

He had culinary training when he was young but left the industry.

However, he never lost his love of food. When he retired, he started his food blog, stars in a community TV cooking show and published the Old Fat Guy’s Guide to Smoking Meat for Beginners. His second book for Pitmasters is in the works.

This week on BBQ Nation with JT, Meathead from www.Amazingribs.com is talking about food safety in the era of Covid 19. Should be interesting and fun. We will dispel a few food myths hopefully.

Jack Timmons, owner and Pitmaster at Jack’s BBQ in Seattle (So Do) joins JT to discuss the affects that Covid 19 has had on his restaurant business

Jack Timmons, owner and Pitmaster at Jack’s BBQ in Seattle (So Do) joins JT to discuss the affects that Covid 19 has had on his restaurant business. With restaurants being ordered to close to everything but take out the residual effects are devastating for owners and employees. Jack had to lay off 60 people last week at his three locations. The native Texan who has lived in Seattle for over two decades is getting creative to finding ways to keep the doors open and perhaps bring back some of his employees. Jack understands the severity of the situation regarding public health, and he also is serious about trying to help his employees.

The conversation is very open and insightful.
