On Episode 158 of the Tailgate Guys BBQ Show Podcast, we take a trip to Minneapolis to visit with David Ellis, pitmaster for Machete Boys BBQ. David and his team often travels several hundred miles for most of their KCBS competitions, but in hot pursuit of a first grand championship it seems worth all the effort. We find out more about David and Machete Boys on this week’s show.

Richard Fergola unveiled some big news earlier this week and he gives us the details on the April segment of “Fergie Time.” Hear about Fergolicious BBQ’s next stage of the live-fire journey and why Richard has taken the leap into making Fergolicious a full-on, full-time brand.

Meanwhile, Steve reviews his Easter cooking and Lyndal previews this weekend’s Ozarks BBQ Fest where the Tailgate Guys cooking team fires it up in a hometown event.
