Where There’s Smoke, There’s 'Meathead': The NYT Best Selling Grillmaster General & Food Scientist is Up+Adam

June 06, 2025

Where There’s Smoke, There’s Meathead: 

Adam chats with one of the most trusted voices in barbecue…Meathead, BBQ Hall of Famer and the mind behind the wildly popular AmazingRibs.com. His latest book, The Meathead Method, isn’t just a cookbook, it’s a myth-busting, flavor-unlocking, science-soaked manual that turns your grill into an instrument of delicious truth.


From the Central Coast to the science lab, Meathead talks about busting BBQ myths, cooking with our own Brigit Binns, and how flavor isn’t just taste, it’s memory, place, and soul. Whether you're a seasoned pitmaster or just fire-curious, this convo is for anyone who wants to cook with more confidence, curiosity, and damn good taste.
