Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast, Episode 334: Dave and Shirin Mara of Meat Candy Q

On Episode 334 of the Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast, we visit with the husband-wife due of Dave and Shirin Mara of Meat Candy Q out of San Diego. It was a banner 2025 season as Meat Candy Q won California BBQ Association Team of the Year honors for the third time in four years and also wound up seventh in the KCBS Team of the Year standings. They had a remarkable stretch of 15 consecutive top-10 finishes during the season and talk about the keys to consistency and how they deal with extensive travel that competition BBQ often requires.  We also have the latest news from The Grill Guys of Missouri in Republic, Missouri and co-hosts Lyndal and Steve review their Thanksgiving weekend cooking results and take a tour of the sports world.  Check out the show in the link below or on your favorite #podcast platform.
