We're back with a plate full of Pitmaster pride and food for thought!

In this week’s episode, Rasheed shares some major moves and well-earned shoutouts—from Eddie Wright’s Mississippi win to This Week in BBQ heading across the pond to Meatopia UK. We talk new sauces from Tuffy Stone, Father’s Day brisket classes from KG BBQ, and Big Moe Cason’s new rig “El Loba” being broken in at Memphis in May. You’ll even hear how Bon Jovi is feeding folks with dignity, one pay-what-you-can meal at a time.

Meanwhile, James fires up the convo with a tribute to old men on the grill—because sometimes, the guy with the stained shirt and 3 decades of smoke under his nails knows more than any cookbook. We dig into burger lore (yes, Mongols might’ve been first), the rise of fast food, and what really makes a “perfect bite.” Is it the melty cheese? The crunchy pickle? Or that glorious meat-to-bun ratio?

Plus:
— The “Bite or Bust” burger breakdown
— National Hoagie Day history lesson
— Shoutouts to rising stars and seasoned vets keeping the flame alive

Tune in, tag your best burger bite, and remember—BBQ is tradition, passion, and always personal
