Jason Meldrum is a man on a mission. A mission to grow the BBQ scene in Western Australia by any means possible. Not only is he a Pitmaster, he's a BBQ Competitor, a Pit Builder, a Caterer, an a BBQ teacher. And you've seen his work before - it was his big beautiful blue offset trailer smoker that I fell in love with when I was at a competition in WA at the end of 2018 and have been fawning over it ever since. In this episode of the Smoking Hot Confessions BBQ Podcast, we get into Jason's BBQ origin story, an update on the BBQ scene in WA, and then we get into his three businesses. We chat about building smokers with Southern Ocean Smokers, serving the masses with Smashed As Burger Co and teaching people how to get the best out of their own smokers as a co-owner of Pitmaster University. Lastly, we close out this interview with a special session for those of you out there who love a good bit of DIY. Molly gives us a great lesson in how to build your own offset smoker. We talk about design fundamentals, materials, tools, and much more. You definitely don't want to miss this one!
