BBQ Events Australia like to do things differently to everybody else. Right from the start they've looked beyond the traditional business models within the BBQ industry and have sought to innovate at every opportunity. Jason Linto and his team are responsible for bringing several big name BBQ celebrities from the US to Australia, to share their wisdom with us. Two of those names include Harry Soo and Big Moe Cason. I was privileged to meet Moe and hang out with him at Smokin' on the Water in 2018. But that competition was just one of the things that the BEA boys had him doing! Perhaps the biggest thing that BEA is known for is bringing Brew'n'Que to Australia. The lads have set this up as a sister competition with the original in NorCo, California. The winner of each event wins an all-expenses paid trip to compete at their sister event. So the Australian winner goes to compete in California and vice versa. This is a truly incredible experience and opportunity for Australian BBQ competitors. In this episode Jason and I chat about the formation of BEA, the challenges and successes they've had, as well as their brand new Backyard Barbecue Series and the exciting opportunities there. And finally, we close out the interview with some tips and advice for people wanting to get into competition BBQ for the first time.
