Episode 280

Taking You Back To 4/28/2015 – Same full show as last week’s Best Moments…but a different portion of it…last Week was Matt Barber from Hot Wachula’s…but this week it’s ME! Back in 2015…and still to this date in 2023…I have an issue with “THIS WORD” that marketing geniuses use to describe “cheese” in a certain physical state. I am not going to tell you what that word or state is, because it would blow up the whole bit for this coming Friday…however, if you are a fan of the show for the past 8 years, then you probably know where I am going with this…and as I mentioned a few seconds ago, it’s still a word that is used today…it’s still as wrong as it was when it was first introduced and it’s still a word that is widely used by celebrities, restaurants, marketing teams, influencers and everyday ham and eggers like me and you…but the problem is…IT’S WRONG!! Not sure what I am driving at? Be sure to download the show this coming Friday and check it out…THEN…let me know if I am right or not! I will give you a heads up on that right now…I AM RIGHT!!

Matt has been a guest on this show for years…and we have spent a lot of time on competition talk and we have also spent a lot of time talking about BBQ business…specifically sauce and rub business.
