In this episode I get a chance to chat with Michael Fulmer from the Houston BBQ Festival. He's someone I’ve been friends with since I first got into the BBQ world. Back when Twitter was the only game in town. Since then he has always been encouraging, generous, and helpful. Not only is he a great resource for BBQ knowledge, but he's a fantastic human who I am honored to call a friend. In this interview we go from his early years in DC to moving to Texas to going to UT to his first real taste of quality Texas Barbecue(hint: it's based in Taylor, Texas). We span his career from Pappas Bros. Steakhouse to Mark's to working for the Killen's Restaurant Group. We go into depth on how he met J.C. Reid(Barbecue Columnist for the Houston Chronicle) to starting the Houston BBQ Festival with him(and in detail about the Festival and the festivals they have created that have branched off of it).

Tales From the Pits has been traveling and eating barbecue. We've been out on the BBQ trail quite a bit over the last couple of months, and the foreseeable future looks just as busy. In this episode we reflect on new restaurant openings including our extended thoughts on Loro, the new Asian smokehouse restaurant from acclaimed chef Tyson Cole and Aaron Franklin of the world famous Franklin Barbecue. We've also been to the newly opened Feges BBQ in Houston and provide some early feedback on their newly launched venture. Also included in the episode are some words on recent trips to Bodacious Bar-B-Q, LeRoy and Lewis BBQ, Banger's in Austin on their recent whole hog cooking, and much more. The near future looks bright on the BBQ front as we'll be going to both the Houston BBQ Festival and the Red Dirt BBQ and Music Festival. We're getting deeper into research and recording for our History of Texas BBQ Series and will be continuing on the road with that in the coming months. We also get into the early entries we've received in our Yeti cooler full of goodies giveway and some fan shoutouts from some of the many great listeners that have contacted us. Catch us out on the road and say hi and be sure to subscribe, rate, and review us on your preferred listening app. Tell a friend and help us grow! Twitter: @bbpodcast Instagram: TalesFromthePits
