Taiglate Guys BBQ Podcast, Episode 326: Donny Teel; Samantha Spartan

from Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast · host Lyndal Scranton, Steve Koehler

We visit with a Hall of Famer on Episode 326 of the Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast. Donny Teel and Buffalo's BBQ is a legend from Sperry, Oklahoma, winning more than 100 competitions over a three-decade career including Grand Championships at both the American Royal World Series of BBQ Open and Jack Daniels World BBQ Invitational. Donny will be inducted into the BBQ Hall of Fame next month during the American Royal at Kansas Speedway and we visit with him what it was like in the old days, when a little whiskey or cold beer went a long way toward getting helpful tips and tricks from other competitors. While Donny has mostly retired from KCBS cooking, he's still successful cooking on the Rib Cookoff Association circuit and his Buffalo's BBQ Food Truck in Sperry is a favorite of many. For our weekly trip to Republic, Mo., to talk it over with the Grill Guys of Missouri, Samantha Spartan hits a home run filling in for husband Skyler. It's a busy month ahead for The Grill Guys and she has the scoop. Meanwhile, co-hosts Lyndal and Steve recap their cooking weeks, including Lyndal leading the Tailgate Guys team into competition in Branson, Missouri, where a couple of top-five calls came our way.
