Beyond the Plate
Chef Aaron Franklin: when he found his life calling…..brisket. (S10/Ep.21)
11 Dec 2024
For our season finale, we’re thrilled to welcome Aaron Franklin, owner of Franklin Barbecue in Austin, Texas, often hailed as the best barbecue spot on the planet. The self-taught barbecue expert shares his journey from humble beginnings—cooking just two briskets a day—to becoming the first pitmaster to win a James Beard Award and serving over 120 briskets daily to customers who line up for hours. Aaron opens up about why he still gets terrified cooking at events, the community-driven spirit that makes Franklin Barbecue a must-visit, and his Hot Luck Live Food & Music Festival. Aaron supports a number of organizations, but shares the great work of his friend (and friend of the pod) Chef Chris Shepherd and his Southern Smoke Foundation.
