Welcome to Episode 9 of the podcast! This week I sit down with Dylan Cave (Instagram: getyourgrubon) from Red Boar Smokery in Red Deer, AB. From starting his Instagram feed exploring food joints while touring Canada in rock bands to eventually opening a restaurant of his own, the tale of Dylan’s journey to BBQ is great! We are also joined by Tyler Gardner (Instagram: morningstarbarbecue). Tyler is a Red Deer based barbecue fan and welder who makes his own smokers. The three of us have a great conversation about the restaurant of course, but covering ethically raised meat, knowing where your food comes from and working with your local butcher. We also talk a little about competition barbecue and the Canadian BBQ Society. Information on the BBQ classes that Dylan mentioned can be found at www.bbqclass.ca. The Canadian BBQ Society website is www.cbbqs.ca. Red Boar Smokery is located at #104, 4916 50 Street in Red Deer, Alberta. You can find them online at www.redboarsmokery.com, on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter @redboarsmokery. Dylan mentions the book The Mindful Carnivore: A Vegetarian’s Hunt for Sustenance by Tovar Cerulli. Find it wherever you buy books.
