I'm not going to lie - this is a total fanboy episode for me. Mark Lambert is a goliath in the BBQ world. Firstly, he's a ridiculously successful competition BBQ pitmaster. He's a 6 time World Champion, 4 time Memphis in May World Champion, and 2017 American Royal World Champion in Ribs. He's also the founder of the powerhouse rub, sauce and distributing brand Sweet Swine O' Mine. You know who I'm talking about - we've literally all had a bottle of his rub in our cupboard. I think I have three in there right now actually. But Mark is so much more than just a champion competition BBQ Pitmaster. He's an entrepreneur, a visionary, and in short, an inspiration. His work extends beyond his BBQ competition successes and his business that have grown from that. He's also a philanthropist - he's a cornerstone member of the one and only Operation BBQ Relief and most recently Steaks 4 Sheepdogs. He's always looking for ways to give back to the communities that have supported him so much. In this full episode of the Smoking Hot Confessions BBQ Podcast, Mark and I get into: Why his Pit Barrel Cooker is his favourite BBQ (5:02) His work with Steaks 4 Sheepdogs (9:46) His experiences at Memphis in May 2021 (16:42) When and how to scale a competition BBQ team into a BBQ business (26:00) How to be successful with the right BBQ Business Mindset (44:13) This episode of the Smoking Hot Confessions BBQ Podcast is proudly brought to you by our Podcast Partner, JAGRD Woodfired Smoker Ovens.
