About this episode

Episode 358 features brothers Joe and Jeff Rouse discussing their success in BBQ competitions and the latest news from The Grill Guys of Missouri.

Living six hours apart as competition teammates can be a challenge. But brothers Joe and Jeff Rouse have been able to overcome the geographic challenge to become one of the nation's top KCBS Backyard teams in recent years and, this year, are making waves in the four-meat Masters series as well. On Episode 358 of the Tailgate Guys BBQ Podcast we go "Under the Radar" to find out more about Joe (from New Jersey) and Jeff (Massachusetts) and how they're consistently bringing home trophies as Rough Cut Q - including a recent Reserve Grand Championship to a KCBS Hall of Famer. It's also time to get the latest news from The Grill Guys of Missouri, who have a big June planned at the BBQ store in Republic, Mo., from big grill discounts to a BBQ class from two of the nation's best (Richard Fergola and Sterling Smith). The co-hoists review their cooking weeks and go through "news and notes" from the BBQ world in the opening segment, with sports segment to close things out. A big thanks to our show sponsors and marketing partners.
