In the second episode of the series I explain the mistakes I made with my smoker experiments and why I ultimately settled on the one that I am still using today.

In this episode I kick off a series that will explore my barbecue mistakes and how they ultimately made me better. Patience (or the lack there of) above all else has been the most important element in my quest to make good barbecue.

This is the first of what will be many episodes about barbecue. In this episode I give a quick back story about how being stationed in North Carolina changed my world and sent me on a barbecue adventure that hooked me for life.

And episode with my thoughts on liquor as promised. What is your favorite style?

Part two of our beer discussion where I raise a question about why the craft community isn’t brewing certain beers.

Part one of a discussion about beer. In the first part I highlight my own odd changes in what beer I drink. I also ask for your insight, so let me know what you think!

This is the first episode of my podcast. In this episode I loosely cover the three elements of my title and what they mean to me. I will put out new episodes weekly that cover each element more specifically, but I thought the first episode should give you a general idea of where I stand and where this is going.
