Rasheed welcomes Mel (Darkside of the Grill) — one of Canada’s top pitmasters — for a fireside-style conversation you won’t want to miss. Fresh off showcasing and winning at Eggtober Fest, Mel shares his origin story, reflects on his growth in the BBQ world, and gets real about the tension between BBQ influencers and true pitmasters.

From the first spark to the last ember, this episode is about community, craft, and the universal language of fire. Whether you’re firing up your first cook or you’ve been tending pits for decades, this is the kind of conversation that hits home.
