1 hour 38 minutes

Episode 313 features country music singer and professional baseball player, Bryce Hensley and pitmaster for the Generation Q Barbecue competition team, Kevin Tatgenhorst

Bryce Hensley was destined to perform in front of a crowd whether as a baseball player or a singer. In the 2018 MLB draft he was chosen by the Kansas City Royals. If it had not been for the pandemic he may still be pitching, but when the players were sent home at the start of the pandemic, Bryce made the decision to pursue his other passion as a country music singer. Bryce received his first guitar at age five, but baseball season came and the guitar was put aside. However, over time, Bryce picked the guitar back up and taught himself the basics. He played select shows and performed at local dive bars while home on breaks from school, but kept a sole focus on his baseball career which culminated in his being drafted. However, Bryce made the decision to pursue his other passion as a country music singer. For more information on Bryce Hensley, including his music go to https://brycehensley.com/

Kevin Tatgenhorst is a pitmaster for the Generation Q Barbecue competition team. Kevin lives in Las Vegas, Nevasa, but began his life in Chicago, Illinois and he roots for the Chicago White Sox. We discuss a small amount of baseball, but quickly jump into a barbecue discussion which details the growth of barbecue in Las Vegas. It is a chance to learn about barbecue in a place you may not think about for this cooking method. Kevin is a great spokesperson for the Nevada BBQ Association of which he is a member.
