The Grand Am Is Here | Jeremy Garrett Explains What's Changing in Competition BBQ
from Wise Guys Barbecue Podcast
Competition BBQ season is officially underway, and Jeremy Garrett from Campground Barbecue joins Wise Guys BBQ to break down what’s happening across the Northeast BBQ scene. In this episode, Vin and Bob Bowman from Big Bobby’s Q talk with Jeremy about the Southern New England Throwdown, the New Jersey Knockout, the return of the Grand Am, and why campground-style BBQ competitions bring a completely different energy than a parking lot cook-off. Jeremy also shares what teams can expect at upcoming events, how double contests are changing the way teams travel and compete, and which top BBQ teams are heading into the Grand Am. Plus, we get into one of the wildest side contests in barbecue: Rib Roulette, where teams have to cook ribs using sauces and rubs they would never choose on purpose.
