(Originally aired July 20, 2010)  Since we are only a day removed from the annual 4th of July hot dog Eating Contest, I wanted to re-launch this segment. Back in 2010 - Before he gained "Superstar" status as the worlds most prolific competitive eater, I interviewed Joey Chestnut on this show during the "After Dark Segment". If you ever wanted an inside look at what goes on as Joey trains for this event, you will want to check this old segment out!!  ENJOY!!

The Best Moments of The BBQ Central Show in 10 Minutes or Less

(June 11, 2024 - Hour Two)  10:14pm - Leading off the 2nd hour is the man that is widely considered to be "America's Butcher" Pat LaFrieda of LaFrieda Meats. Pat has been doing a lot since our last visit to include building out their business, keeping up with trendy cuts, using induction heat to cook, battling through a global pandemic and much much more. I look forward to catching up with Pat tonight! ﻿ 10:35pm - Closing the show tonight is first time guest Mark Ritvalski of RitzWerks Solar. Solar? Yes, in fact, solar to help power your pellet cooker which enables you to "cut the cord" so to speak. You can use the "Green Moose" instead of being tethered to the home outlet. There is also a "Power Moose" that we will talk about tonight as well. Be sure to tune in for some "GREEN" ways to power you electric needy cookers!

Joey Chestnut Is NOT Eating; Juneteenth Has A Traditional Dish And It Is...

(New To You Content)  Can you believe I am STILL out of the country?? It's true...so for the 2nd release this week, I bring you a conversation I had with the founder and CEO of Chunk Foods, Amos Golan. Learn how this company literally started in his Brooklyn, NY apartment and has since grown into one of the most viable options for a non-beef experience. I have had it, and while it isn't a full BEEF experience, it is one of the best options currently out there compared to the others. This is a great segment...I hope you enjoy it!

A New Non-Beef Option - Chunk Foods Founder Amos Goaln

(New Content To You)  While I am out of the country, yes out of the country, I hope you enjoy this segment (extended at that) I did with Chef John Tesar. We talk a lot about his cooking background, his take on cooking in todays family, what it's like running a restaurant and what it's like growing a restaurant. He also makes some pretty bold statements on industry related things...love him or hate him, John is not afraid to tell it like he sees it!  ENJOY!
