This is Episode Two of Season Six, my U.S. Road Trip Part II. In this episode I head downtown to the #1 voted BBQ joint in New Orleans - Central City BBQ. There I met James Cruse Jr, the head Pitmaster of Central City and also team captain of the all-conquering Aporkalypse Now Competition BBQ team. After a tour of the very impressive facilities, we grabbed a couple of local microbrews and a plate of pulled pork egg rolls and chatted at length about what goes into running the #1 BBQ joint in a city voted #1 for food in the world, and I even managed to get James to give me a step-by-step run through of how he does his competition-winning pork ribs. And for those of you wondering, those egg rolls were to die for! Before we get into it, I'd like to let you know about our awesome merch shop. We've got our incredible Smoking Hot Confessions Tumbler as well as hats, t-shirts and stickers. There's also two amazing ebooks - 27 Lessons Learned from Competition BBQ and the delicious Bacon Manifesto. I'd also like to invite you to join us at the Smoking Hot Confessions Community on Facebook. If you're looking for a BBQ group full of open-minded people who just love to help each other out, the Smoking Hot Confessions Community is a great place to continue the conversation. Finally, however you're listening to this episode, please subscribe, rate and review the show. It really helps me spread that BBQ love. So without further ado, grab yourself a local microbrew and a pulled pork egg roll, and join me as I rap all things BBQ with James Cruse.
