In this episode I get a chance to chat with Ryan Newland from Backline Fabrication in Austin Texas. Currently his lead time is 2-3 weeks for live fire items and just 2-3 months for smokers/pits. The best way to get ahold of Ryan is via email here: RYAN@BACKLINEFAB.COM See all things Backline Fabrication here: http://www.backlinefab.com Check him out on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/backlinefab See him on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/backlinefab This story really is about the little things along the way that define your success. Ryan works hard and it shows. We get into his journey from Burbank to the car stereo world to Hollywood where he worked as a set decorator. We then talk about his metal fabrication for tours for Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Pink, and Britney Spears which gave him the knowledge to go into pit building. We talk about his entering a BBQ competition and taking that prize money to buy a 250 gallon smoker. We discuss his work for Bangers Sausage House in Austin, Steven Rossler of Rossler's Blue Cord Barbecue, John Brotherton's Liberty Barbecue in Round Rock, Jay Tinney or Tinney's BBQ and the 1,000 he's doing for Alice's Restaurant at Treaty Oak Distilling. We end with discussing ALL of the items he produces(3 in ones, live fire, Santa Maria style, smokers, & backyard versions).

While attending The University of Texas at Austin, Ben Siegel, the entrepreneur behind Bangers Sausage House & Beer was enamored by The Best Wurst trailer on Austin’s famous Sixth Street. Post graduation Siegel moved to Dallas and became involved in commercial real estate. Not satisfied, Siegel took the leap and followed his college dream of opening a sausage house and beer garden in his college town of Austin, Texas. He is newly married, a new and very proud father and in the process of expanding Bangers and his growing Sausage empire.
