If barbecue had a Mount Rushmore, it's no exaggeration to say this guy would be on it! Tuffy Stone is an icon to even the most experienced pitmaster.  His legendary precision and obsession with the science of smoke make him one of the most influential people in barbecue. It also made him 5 World Championships.  Maybe we should hear what the gentleman has to say.

Barbecue is, to some degree, all about that smoky flavor that can only be provided by burning something.  Whether with logs or chips, wood provides a wide palette of seasoning for your meats no different than any array of rubs or spices.  Guest Nick Broughton supplies barbecue stores nationwide with the wood products necessary to add flavor to your cookouts and knows as much about the subject as just about anyone can.
