This is Episode Thirteen of Season Six, my U.S. Road Trip Part II. Legends of the BBQ scene don't come much bigger that Ray 'Dr BBQ' Lampe. He got involved with the competitive BBQ scene when it first kicked off in the '80's. He's apparently 'Retired', and I use that term very loosely, he's still extremely active in the comp scene as a Brand Ambassador for Big Green Egg, is frequently involved in BBQ TV Spots and has even opened a bricks'n'mortar BBQ joint in Florida, essentially bringing 'real' BBQ to that part of the States. Whew! With summer coming up, it's time for a new favourite t-shirt, and I've got just the thing. Drawing inspiration from the iconic BBQ pop culture art by Gil Elvgren, the Hail Mary T is black, like all good BBQ shirts should be, comes in both men's and women's cuts in a variety of sizes and of course feature Mary, who likes her BBQ smokey, spicy and just a little bit naughty. Check her out now! I'd also like to invite you to join us at the Smoking Hot Confessions BBQ 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 BBQCommunity is a great place to continue the conversation. So without further ado, grab yourself a thick, salty slice of Picanha and some Irish-upped Alabama White Sauce and join me as I get to take a trip in the way-back machine and find out what competition BBQ was like in the 1980's with the one and only Ray 'Dr BBQ' Lampe!
