Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast, Episode 349: Paul Russell; Skyler Spartan & Charlie Wallace

from Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast · host Lyndal Scranton

Everywhere Paul Russell goes in competition BBQ from his home base in Conway, Arkansas, he consistently gets the question about his team's unique name. But Kermit's Ex BBQ is more than a neat name and logo, it's also a consistent contender on the KCBS circuit. On Episode 349 of the Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast, we visit with Paul about his latest success, a Grand Championship at the Kickin' It On Route 66 BBQ Challenge in St. Robert, Mo., plus his upward trend to become a serious contender anywhere he competes.  We also check in with Skyler Spartan from The Grill Guys of Missouri, who are cooking up several hundred pounds of BBQ to serve at this weekend's Man Show Expo in Springfield, Missouri, and what's coming up in April at their BBQ shop in Republic. Co-hosts Lyndal and Steve discuss their recent cooking adventures and talk a little sports headed into Final Four weekend.
