#032: Inspired by BBQ Pitmasters, Barbecue Turned This Friendship Into Family – Yardpirates BBQ - a podcast by Shawn Walchef

Yardpirates BBQ - Competition BBQ Team - San Diego @Yardpiratesbbq

Jeremy, Garrett, and Andy started their BBQ journey with friends - grilling and experimenting with different meats on a homemade grill. They found inspiration from the T.V. show'Pitmasters'and they hosted their own backyard BBQ competition with close friends. The Yardpirates BBQ team was born. Their love for BBQ sparked their desire to get involved in competition BBQ.

The Yardpirates BBQ brand became a lifestyle for the group of friends. Now they are involved in competitions like the Annual Del Mar BBQ State Championship and the Annual Spring Valley Tailgate&BBQ Festival. They spend their time competing and grilling on their custom smoker, and channel their love for BBQ to get involved and help the community.
