Justin West

Justin West enjoyed early success in competition, winning a grand championship in just his third contest. Since that time, the Texan has continued to excel in various sanctioning bodies as Hat Creek Q with perhaps his biggest prize yet the Ribs championship at the recent Houston Livestock Rodeo &amp; BBQ Cookoff. On Episode 152 of the Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast, we visit with Justin about his BBQ journey. The KCBS season in mid-America gets rolling in March with one of the first big events a doubleheader, March 25-27, in St. Robert, Missouri. Gene Newkirk, one of the organizers of the 3rd annual Kickin’ It On Route 66 BBQ Challenge, fills us in on an event that is on pace to attract more than 50 teams. Gene, the Presiding Commissioner of Pulaski County, also has become quite a cook himself and we ask him about that. Meanwhile, co-hosts Steve and Lyndal touch on their latest cooking adventures and discuss March Madness, the best month of the year for basketball junkies. A big thanks to our great sponsor/marketing partners who make Season 4 of the show possible: Blues Hog BBQ Sauce, Royal Oak Charcoal, The Butcher Shoppe, Iowa BBQ Store, Fergolicious BBQ, Affordable Financial Services, Arkassippi Smoke Live and The Arkassippi Combo, Pro Technology Solutions, Vietti Marketing, In the Garden of Eden and Marty “Sign Man” Prather and Domino’s. We still have room for a couple of more sponsors. Contact me at lscranton755@gmail.com for more info. Have a great BBQ Week and thanks for listening! #SmokeEmIfYouGotEm

Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast, Episode 152: Justin West, Gene Newkirk

On Episode 103 of the Tailgate Guys BBQ Show Podcast, we visit with Sterling Smith from Loot’n Booty BBQ about a variety of topics, including how to properly cook a tri-tip and why a guy who is highly decorated on the competition trail for 12 years just took a BBQ class seeking more knowledge. Sterling, who’s based in Scottsdale, Arizona, is one of the high-energy people in food sport and a great ambassador of spreading BBQ knowledge world wide. He tells us about trying to turn down time during the pandemic in a positive, be it cooking more at home or putting the finishing touches on his new Jolly Roger Jalapeno Garlic Black Rub, which is now on the market. It’s always great conversation when Sterling joins us, so buckle up and enjoy! We also check in with Gene Newkirk, from the Kickin’ it on Route 66 BBQ contest, one of the first big events in the Midwest in 2021. Gene tells us about some things he and the community leaders of St. Robert, Missouri, have learned about putting on a quality KCBS contest and his outlook for the March 26-27 event. Thanks to our sponsor/marketing partners: Blues Hog BBQ Sauce, Royal Oak Charcoal, The Butcher Shoppe, Affordable Income Tax &amp; Payroll, DDR Fabrication and Arkassippi Smoke Live and The Arkassippi Combo. ADVISORY: We have room for two more sponsors. Email lscranton755@gmail.com for details. Have a great BBQ Week! #SmokeEmIfYouGotEm
