Mike and Nichole Mulkey of Mulkey’s BBQ from St. Louis are one of the many successful husband-wife competition BBQ teams in the country. On Episode 266 of the Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast, we learn how they work together after Mulkey’s won the Grand Championship at the 172-team Great Lenexa BBQ Battle. The back-to-back St. Louis BBQ Society Team of the Year has a shared passion for BBQ and the competition it provides since they began just a few years ago. 

We also hear from Skyler Spartan from The Grill Guys of Missouri with the latest from the Republic, Missouri, BBQ store. Look for The Grill Guys serving up tasty treats from their “Vegan Recovery Center” food truck on June 28 at the Hav-A-Blast 4th of July celebration in Republic. Also on the show, Brad Colter has news of a Ribs class coming up on June 29 in our Smoke ’n Magic BBQ Minute.

Meanwhile, co-hosts Lyndal and Steve review their cooking weeks and take a quick tour of the sports world.
