The Kansas City Chiefs are the world champions of football, again! We'll talk about that, plus championship BBQ on Episode 247 of the Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast. Leading off our guest lineup is Phillip Breeden of LC BBQ out of Bandera, Texas. We visit with Phillip about his Champions BBQ Alliance Rio World Championship Cookoff last weekend and preview the upcoming Houston Livestock Rodeo and BBQ Cookoff. Phillip has been on the road competing in BBQ nearly every week for the last six years and he discusses why he embraces the grind and how he deals with the ups and downs that are involved.

Checking in from the heart of Chiefs Kingdom is Richard Fergola of Proud Souls BBQ & Provisions Kansas City. "Fergie" tells us how a winning sports team lifts an entire community - Kansas City-area residents certainly can identify - and he also gives a rundown of all the happenings at Proud Souls locations in Kansas City, Denver and Littleton, Colorado and Orlando, Florida.

Breana Via stops by with the Smoke 'n Magic Minute and Charlie Wallace brings us a report from The Grill Guys of Missouri. Meanwhile, co-hosts Lyndal and Steve review their Super Sunday cooking and give some final thoughts on the big game.
