In this episode I chat with John Brotherton from Brotherton's Black Iron Barbecue in Pflugerville, Texas and Liberty Barbecue in Round Rock, Texas. John has an overall passion for food, really good quality food and strives at every level to exceed customer's expectations. John takes us through his journey from growing up in Liberty, Texas (outside of Houston) to a hugely successful laser printer cartridge business to having a food trailer on the weekends and/or nights with crazy sandwiches with clever names to getting the BBQ bug(an obsession) which lead him to going to all 50 of the Texas Monthly Top 50 BBQ joints to his non-Carolina style Carolina BBQ Joint, to student loan collections, to Russel and Misty Roegels saving the day for him, to teaming up with Kelly from Black Iron Eats, to their inventive sandwiches and incredible BBQ, to his second venture of Liberty BBQ. John Brotherton has lived an interesting life(BBQ and otherwise) and lives and breathes what BBQ family is all about. You are going to love this interview.
