Kyle and his dad began watching a series called BBQ Pitmasters. They were immediately captivated and the show “lit a fire” under the duo, propelling them to learn to cook competition-style BBQ and eventually compete. That year for Christmas, Kyle bought Jerry a little offset smoker and the two got to work cooking almost every weekend, determined to teach themselves how to smoke meat on a competitive level. Competing in KCBS contests, Kyle has earned four grand championships (two in partnership with another team), 19 first place awards, 40 Top Ten calls, five KCBS ancillary 180 pins (with a perfect-perfect score, another rare feat in the competitive BBQ game!), and 14th place in the rib category at the prestigious 2021 American Royal World Series of BBQ Invitational. He also earned seventh place in the dessert category at the 2021 Jack Daniel's World Championship Invitational BBQ competition in Lynchburg, Tennessee. Kyle has participated in more than food competitions in 11 states since he and his father started Your Behind BBQ. While Kyle enjoys the ride that Your Behind BBQ is taking, he's in the driver's seat — steering his fate and pursuing his next challenge. Continuing to compete in any type of food contest he can, he wants to see Your Behind BBQ become a household name. He wants to help teach moms and dads — the weekend backyard BBQ warriors — how to create outstanding meals to feed their family and friends, and perhaps open up a small restaurant one day. Meanwhile, he's happy chasing his dreams with no limits and having fun doing it… with father by his side.

As a busy mom of three and the founder of Chaos N' Cookies, keeping moms from crumbling is my main objective. After gaining 10+ years of experience as a Director of Marketing helping build multiple 6 & 7-figure businesses for other women I've created the Chaos Control System to equip moms to overcome their own objections so they can live the life they want to live and start that business they have always wanted. The Family Playbook, or standard operating procedure, is the tool every mama needs to save time and stress-less when chaos ensues at home. For new biz owners, I also help simplify systems on social media and other business platforms to automate processes to get their business up and running quickly and efficiently with how-tos and hands-on coaching.

Baseball and BBQ Episode #168: Champion Pitmaster, Harry Soo of Slap Yo' Daddy BBQ and Author, Dan Good Harry Soo says he became a champion pitmaster purely by chance.  It was on his "bucket list" to enter a barbecue competition and with the nudging of a fellow co-worker he did and the rest, as they say, is history.  Harry is a strong believer in spreading BBQ love and he is doing just that.  Harry has more than 100 first-place finishes, 30 Grand Championships, is a television personality (Food Network, Chopped, Smoked, BBQ Pitmasters), and makes and posts videos on YouTube.  His incredibly positive attitude is a pleasure and something we all wish we had.  We are joined by our beloved guest co-host, Doug Scheiding, who knows Harry from their previous meetings, including their time together at The Houston Rodeo.  More information on Harry Soo can be found at https://www.slapyodaddybbq.com/       Dan Good is an accomplished book writer, ghostwriter, journalist, and editor.  He's held leadership roles with the New York Daily News and New York Post and has also worked for NBC News, ABC News, and local outlets in New Jersey.  His latest book is, Playing Through the Pain:  Ken Caminiti and the Steroids Confession That Changed Baseball Forever.  It is a fascinating look at Ken Caminiti's life and Major League Baseball Career.  Ken Caminiti was both a beneficiary as well as a victim of the steroids era as he partook and readily admitted doing so, including during his 1996 MVP season with the San Diego Padres.  Baseball fans who are eager to know about the game they love, warts and all, will want to read this book. We conclude the show with the song, Baseball Always Brings You Home from the musician, Dave Dresser and the poet, Shel Krakofsky. We recommend you go to Baseball BBQ, https://baseballbbq.com for special grilling tools and accessories, the Pandemic Baseball Book Club, https://www.pbbclub.com  to find many of the wonderful books we have featured as well as some additional swag, Magnechef, https://magnechef.com/ for excellent and unique barbecue gloves, Cutting Edge Firewood High Quality Kiln Dried Firewood - Cutting Edge Firewood in Atlanta for high quality firewood and cooking wood, and Mantis BBQ, https://mantisbbq.com/ to purchase their outstanding sauces with a portion of the proceeds being donated to the Kidney Project.

Episode 239 Taking you back to 8/6/2013 – This week featuring a discussion with old friends of the show, Michael McDearman and South Carolina BBQ legend, Jack Waiboer. Back in 2013, Mc D and Jack were on an episode of BBQ Pitmasters and this segment finds us talking about their time on the show. If I am not mistaken, this was also a rare occasion where I had a real live in-studio guest! MC D was on the Sam's Club tour at the time doing the Beef demo…and there was a local Sam's event in Canton, OH…so I actually went out there and met up with Michael and that's also where I met a number of other teams in person. The highlight for me was getting to hang out with the late/great Robert Magee from Munchin' Hogs at The Hilton (Q39 Founder) for a few hours and sampling the turn ins…that was the first time I ever had real money muscle medallions…and they were incredible!! Holding that aside, what you'll hear in this segment is some really great discussion and insight from two guys that were ON the show giving their real experience… Ready to make a “BEST OF” show all your own?? Email Jon Solberg and let him know what you would like to hear on a future episode! As always, thank you for listening! *Don't forget to RATE AND REVIEW THE SHOW ON YOU PODCAST APP* Want to hear more from this episode???
