On Episode 218 of the Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast, the guys recap their holiday cooking and other adventures and take a dive into the archives to find one of the most-popular guests of our time in podcast form. So iconic in the BBQ world that he needs only one name, Darian Khosravi  - better known as Kosmo - went from modest beginnings to a career of championship cooking and a world-renowned line of rubs, sauces and accessories. Kosmo talks about his unique career, which began on a cheap box store smoker he purchased while working as a trucker hauling hazardous waste around the Oklahoma City area. We hope you enjoy this look back at one of the top guest segments from 2022.
