Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast, Episode 321: Gabe Trevino

On Episode 321 of the Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast, we talk it over with one of the nation's hottest competition pit masters. Gabe Trevino and Smokin' Volts BBQ of Fontana, California is coming off a Grand Championship over Labor Day Weekend at the star-studded Meat & Tater BBQ Fest in Boise, Idaho. Gabe scored a 707.9 total, edging out Gettin' Basted and one of his mentors, Brad Leighninger, for top honors. It was Smokin' Volts' second straight GC and fifth in seven events since June 1. Gabe reviews his BBQ background and what it feels like to be on a roll - especially in the Brisket category in which he's won six times in 2025.   Charlie Wallace joins us from Grill Guys of Missouri to review the big 4th anniversary celebration last weekend and other happenings at the standout store in Republic. Co-hosts Steve and Lyndal also talk about their latest cooking adventures and touch on the start of the NFL season. Check out the show in the link below or on your favorite #podcast platform.
