While many top competition BBQ teams are a one-person operation with little assistance, it’s a collaborative effort for the Kansas City-area team All Forked Up for Q. Dan Boles and Jamie Stuke share the cooking duties for the four KCBS meats and it’s clearly a winning formula. On Episode 137 of the Tailgate Guys BBQ Show, Dan and Jamie tell the team’s story, including a Grand Championship last weekend at the Border War BBQ in Osawatomie, Kansas.

Ever thought of designing your own dream pit, but don’t have the skills to make it a reality? Frank Cox of SmokerBuilder.com can help. With an engineering and fabrication background, Frank can build any kind of pit, or design and instruct others how to do so. We visit with Frank about the booming DIY world of BBQ on this week’s show.

Meanwhile, co-hosts Lyndal and Steve talk about the importance of winterizing grills, cooking fabulous chicken wings and the free-falling Kansas City Chiefs.

Thanks to our great sponsor/marketing partners who make our show possible: Blues Hog BBQ Sauce, Royal Oak Charcoal, The Butcher Shoppe, Iowa BBQ Store, Affordable Financial Services, Arkassippi Smoke Live and The Arkassippi Combo, Vietti Marketing, In the Garden of Eden, Pro Technology Solutions, Gray Wolf Smokers and The BBQ League.
