BBQ Catering is a very tempting prospect to many of us in the barbecue world. The idea of being able to leave your job and spend your time making fat stacks of brisket cash in your very own food truck is a sweet, sweet fantasy. But, is it really all it's cracked up to be? My guest in this Ep is Andrew Donn-Patterson (ADP to his friends) from Black Iron Smokers and BBQ, one of Australia's best BBQ Pitmasters. His smoked meat and his incredibly sexy offset BBQ trailer smoker have become a staple of the BBQ Festival scene all up and down the East Coast of the country, as far south as Tasmania and as far north as Brisbane. His brisket, short ribs, pulled pork and all the trimmings are the stuff that BBQ dreams are made of. And in our chat today he takes us into the world of BBQ vending and catering and tells the truth about how things really are on that side of the smoker. In this Episode of the Smoking Hot Confessions BBQ Podcast, we get into: Why Andrew doesn't actually eat barbecue (6:12) Why Andrew collects Silver Creek Smokers trailers and offset smokers (13:34) How Black Iron Smokers and BBQ become a BBQ business (21:09) The TRUTH behind running a BBQ Catering and Food Business (23:08) Andrew's move into building offset BBQ smokers himself (35:13) Tips and tricks for how to smoke a brisket on on offset smoker (42:16) Barbe Con is coming soon!
