Episode Description from the Publisher

The guys from Blind Fox BBQ haven't been doing competition cooking for long, but it's clear they rise to the occasion in big contests. Two years after finishing sixth at their first American Royal World Series of BBQ Open (444 teams) Joe Rickfels and Adam Burch won their first Grand Championship at last weekend's 103-team Smoke in the Spring in Osage City, Kansas. Not only was it the first GC, it gave the guys a ticket into the American Royal Invitational and an auto bid into the inaugural BBQ World Cup next spring in Las Vegas. On Episode 351 of the Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast, we visit with Joe and Adam about their BBQ journey and their expectations for the rest of 2026. We also check in with Aaron Huentelman, competition meat director for Mister Brisket about a chance to win some cool prizes in a new promotion. Aaron also updated us on Mister Brisket's plans for the competition game in 2026 and an overview of the market and prices as a whole.  Co-hosts Lyndal and Steve review their cooking weeks, talk about the Tailgate Guys' upcoming competition season opener in Iola, Kansas, and talk a little sports.  Check out the show on your favorite #podcast platform or on our Facebook page (link in IG bio).
