Episode 161…Taking you back to 1/21/2014 – Does anyone remember Neil Stawder??  Perhaps you know him as BIG MISTA...from Big Mista’s BBQ!!  In that segment we got a quick background on Neil and how he originally got into BBQ via the competition scene.  He then opened up feeding locations at Farmer’s Markets in southern California...eventually being able to leave his job and do it full time and his wife, Phyllis, joined him a few months after that.  Neil had a big personality and he was always a great interview on the show.  I think you will enjoy this one...especially if you knew Neil in his hay-day...it’s a nice look back.



Also, let me remind you, if there is a segment or a guest that you have a special feeling towards, email Jon a request and he will do his best to meet your expectation!  MAKE SURE TO SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST!!

Tonight we dive into the very controversial topic of "meat washing". Over the past few months, I have seen an onslaught of videos showing/encouraging the process of washing your beef, chicken and everything else with something as simple as a rinse under the sink to more elaborate processes of rubbing salts, limes (bleach) and other items to "clean" your proteins. Tonight we will talk about the science of washing your meat, if it's effective and if you are actually achieving your goal of making your proteins "cleaner'...you might be surprised!﻿10:35pm - The bullpen segment tonight is guested by Tennessee Embedded Correspondent, Matt Osman. Matt has been diligently tracking the latest happenings of both Memphis In May and Smoke Slam and we will dive into those topics tonight as we are just weeks away from both events taking place. What's the latest gossip, who's competing where and which event is going to come out looking the best when the weekend of competition is finally over? Matt will give us his take on all of it.The BBQ Central Show SponsorsSchwank Gills (https://glnk.io/p9j9m/bbqcentralshow) ­ Use promo code BBQCENTRAL and get $150 OFFPrimo Grills (https://publish.blubrry.com/s-16265/episodes/new/www.primogrill.com)Pitts & Spitts BBQ Pits -  (https://publish.blubrry.com/s-16265/episodes/new/www.pittsandspitts.com/bbqcentral)Use "charcoalcentral" at checkout for $150 Off Charcoal GrillsBig Poppa Smokers (https://publish.blubrry.com/s-16265/episodes/new/www.bigpoppasmokers.com) – Use promo code “REMPE” for $10 off your purchase of $50 or more!Fireboard (https://publish.blubrry.com/s-16265/episodes/new/www.fireboard.com)Cookin Pellets (https://publish.blubrry.com/s-16265/episodes/new/www.cookinpellets.com)Pit Barrel Cooker (https://publish.blubrry.com/s-16265/episodes/new/www.pitbarrelcooker.com)Franklin BBQ Pits (http://www.franklinbbqpits.com/)The Butcher Shoppe -  (https://www.facebook.com/TheButcherShoppe)Save 10% When You Mention "The BBQ Central Show"JRE Tobacco (https://www.jretobacco.com/) – Makers of the Aladino (and other) line of premium cigars!

But do you know where this "Minion Method" came from? It came from a legendary BBQ guy out of the Pacific Northwest named Jim Minion, who on a whim, tossed some lit charcoal on top of some unlit charcoal in order to control the temperature of the cooker on the way up. It was instantly successful and widely adopted as the best way to manage a charcoal fire for long cooks. It might be time to chase Jim Minion down and catch up!Ready to make a “BEST OF” show all your own??
