A Lawyer, His Friends, and Food!

Tay Nelson of Bobby's BBQ Talks Arrest, God's Grace, and Learning How to BBQ on YouTube


Listen Later

Tay Nelson opened Bobby’s BBQ, along with his wife Sarah, in 2018, and we recently sat down with him at his restaurant on Main Street in Fountain Inn, SC.   

Tay Nelson's journey to award-winning pitmaster, BBQ guru, and restauranteur was not easy, and while some of the difficulty was self-inflicted, you won’t hear him make excuses for any of it.   Find out where Bobby's All-Purpose Seasoning originated, how he sold it out of a duffle bag at Clemson football games, and how it ultimately landed on the shelves in Whole Foods. Discover how he learned to cook from YouTube, how his wife got the great Aaron Franklin  to respond to an email, and how his first brisket turned out.   

Learn how an internet friendship with Pitmaster Dylan Taylor (https://www.taylorbbqcatering.com/) and a trip to Texas to pick up his smokers (Grace and Mercy) from Sonny Moberg (https://mobergsmokers.com) launched a friendship with Michael and Mark Black of the famed Terry Black's BBQ (https://www.terryblacksbbq.com).
