Few can boast how they beat arguably the most-famous chef on the planet, but chef David Sandusky did just that on the popular Food Network program “Beat Bobby Flay.” David joins us on Episode 164 of the Tailgate Guys BBQ Show Podcast to talk about representing the BBQ world by his decision to beat Bobby with a signature dish featuring Tri Tip in only 45 minutes. He also talks about the crazy life of being a restaurant owner and his Beast Craft BBQ in Belleville, Illinois, and Beast Butcher & Block on the Missouri side of the river in St. Louis.

It’s also time for our monthly installment of “Arkassippi Alley” with John Lindsey of All Q’ued Up BBQ and Arkassippi Smoke Live. John is best known for his success on the Steak Cookoff Association world, but he discusses a recent foray into his roots of BBQ competition cooking chicken and ribs. Spoiler alert: It went pretty darn well.

Co-hosts Lyndal and Steve also talk their Memorial Day Weekend cooking adventures and take a swing through the sports world.
