White Meat vs. Dark Meat, Crawfish Season & Lemon Pepper Chicken Quarters
This week on the HowToBBQRight Podcast, Malcom and I discuss the Memphis Grizzlies BIG win against the Timberwolves (00:20). Malcom made a Lemon Pepper Chicken Quarters (09:18), and I did a little research on the differences between White & Dark Meat (17:02). Malcom judged his first Crawfish Contest (23:35), and ate at a fancy-pants restaurant called Rizzuto’s (36:45). Michael almost caused me to commit “scooter-cide” on our ride together (41:20). We’re about to start a Giveaway for our Facebook Community (44:55), which has been providing some really cool ideas lately (45:40). Malcom’s got a hankering for a Crawfish Boil after last weekend (50:35), and we’re holding a Margarita Contest next week in honor of Cinco De Mayo (52:40).

The History of Southaven Springfest, Vortex Grilling & BBQ Meal Prepping
On today’s episode of the HowToBBQRight Podcast, Malcom made some Lemon Pepper Chicken Quarters for a recipe coming soon (00:45), and he discusses the benefit of using a Vortex versus High Temp Pellet Grill smoking (01:44). He did some research and development on his newest seasoning (04:41), and boiling corn has never been more delicious thanks to a guy in Iowa (10:20). It’s going to be interesting seeing how different crawfish judging is from judging barbecue (13:50), and we’re eating good at a steakhouse outside of New Orleans, this weekend (19:01). I pick Malcom’s brain about the best steak he’s ever had at a restaurant (22:51). Swine Life and some of the guys around the office are practicing for WCBCC at Southaven Springfest (27:19), where Malcom got his start in Competition BBQ (28:00). There is a lot of “Showy-ness” to Competition BBQ, these days (37:30), and has come a long way from Malcom’s Strawberry Shots (40:19). A member of our Facebook Community turned a tractor combine into a bad-to-the-bone rotisserie grill (42:28), and Malcom has Hasselback Sausage Sliders in his near future (44:24). I ponder how good coleslaw would be using our Mississippi White BBQ Sauce (45:10). What is Malcom Reed’s MUST-HAVE Weber Kettle Accessories (46:29), and Pork Brisket NEEDS to make a comeback to store shelves (50:25). What else is coming up this week, in the world of HowToBBQRight (54:00)?

Crawfish Judging, The “Old” Food Network & Easter Brisket Recipe
This week on the HowToBBQRight Podcast, Malcom and I talk about the Office Dip Contest going down today (00:21), and the recipes everyone is making for it (02:43). Malcom cooked an Easter Brisket this week, (09:45) which he paired with a homemade gravy (19:12). He’s very particular about his plate arrangement (21:53), but we’re going Coastal with our family Easter Celebration this year (24:20). We went to New Orleans, and got KICKED OUT of a concert last weekend (26:20). I got served chopped grass at a fancy restaurant (30:15). Still, we’re headed back next week for the Metairie Crawfish Festival (32:15). Malcom and I remember classic Food Network shows (37:09). Be on the watch for a Chorizo Queso recipe to hit TikTok (44:58). We’ve got some surprises coming up soon (54:35), including our Second annual Margarita Office Contest (56:20).

The Co-Packing Process, Mississippi White Sauce & Southern Fried Fish
On today’s episode of the HowToBBQRight Podcast, Memphis In May is moving to Midtown this year (00:47), and there’s a new Outlaw Pit on Malcom’s wishlist (02:58). The latest and greatest Killer Hogs BBQ Sauce is now on the shelves (07:47), which formulates the age-old question about Mayonnaise shelf life (11:36). Malcom walks me through the process of bottling sauces and rubs (14:38), from finding a Co-Packer, to translating your recipe (18:41) and finally getting the new product on store shelves (28:34). We had a Fish Fry this weekend (31:18), with some easy and delicious Hush Puppies (35:02). Malcom insists he is still the Catfish KING (42:26). He’s perfected his crispy wings on the Pellet Grill (44:07). Walmart is now OFFICIALLY the place to buy steaks (50:22). Is it possible to hold a turkey, post-cook, for TWO days (53:33)? Malcom’s planning a BIG weekend in New Orleans (57:45).

NEW Traeger Timberline, Competition BBQ Secrets & Honey Jalapeno Ribs
This week on the HowToBBQRight Podcast, I had my 29th Birthday (again) (00:20), right before a HUGE storm (02:00). Malcom made some delicious Spicy Jalapeño Ribs (03:42) complete with jalapeño honey sauce (17:50). He spills the beans on his “Bone-Out” magic trick for ribs (21:00), which isn’t nearly as impressive as the NEW Traeger Timberline XL that he cooked them on (24:35). The price tag on the Timberline is dwarfed by some grills I found online (34:07), though Malcom thinks he likes the Timberline’s “Pop-N-Lock” feature too much to switch over (41:00). Malcom made me a beautifully rare steak for my birthday (43:22), and some loaded baked potatoes to go with it (47:25). I saw a Tiktok for pastrami crescent rolls (48:58), which Malcom thinks might go well in the Air Fryer (50:36). Malcom’s got some exciting recipes on the works, so stay tuned (54:06).

We talk about the amazing Tuscan Pasta Salad, Brats & Hot Dogs Malcom and I made (38:22), and the delicious Tri Tip that he smoked like a Brisket last week (39:53). Tyler tells us about how cheap the meat in California is (49:00), and Malcom decides an Easter Brisket is on the calendar (51:30). We appear to have a spoon thief at home (57:20), and we’re knee-deep in prep for Memphis in May (59:00).

St. Patrick’s Day Drinks, Hawaiian Rolls & Redneck Margaritas
The Shop-A-Versary Event is almost upon us (01:10), but that didn’t stop Malcom from making some delicious recipes, including better-than-a-Krystal-burgers (05:28) and homemade pizza rolls (08:10), which got me wondering what Malcom’s favorite King’s Hawaiian recipe is (09:18). Malcom came dead last in the last office competition (10:50), which means he gets to pick the next one (12:47). We made some amazing potato skins this week (16:47), and the best Jambalaya ever to go with (18:28). Someone shared the secret of getting fresh lamb locally (32:10), and Malcom clarifies a mistake he made last podcast (33:45). We talk about Redneck Margaritas and Malc’s latest St Patrick’s Day inspired drink (35:30), which makes me wonder if he’s up for an “All-You-Can-Drink” style podcast (40:06). Malc’s got a recipe in the works for a Deep-dish pizza (46:06), Which reminds me of my days working at Papa John’s (50:22).

We all reminisce about old-school fair attractions (06:43). Malcom spills the beans about his Brisket Shepherd’s Pie Recipe he made this week (11:00), and he gives a history lesson about the origins of Burnt Ends (26:30). Meat prices are SKYROCKETING (33:30), which may put a kink in any “Brisket Sundaes” Malcom might want to try (39:00). Does anyone open bags of Pellets with their teeth (44:20)? Malcom tells me what is on the horizon in the world of HowToBBQRight (52:06), starting with CT Pork Butts (58:07).

Back from Jamaica, McDonalds SECRET Menu & Mardi Gras Recipes
This week on the HowToBBQRight Podcast, Malcom and I just got back from Jamaica (00:28), and Malcom thinks salmon and lamb might not be so bad after all (01:43). We talk about Malcom’s latest Cajun-style recipes, including Mardi Gras Shrimp (11:23), King Cake Bread Pudding (18:24), Crawfish Rolls (23:57), and his version of a Hurricane (27:12). Malcom is ready to pull out his grillin’ shoes, which Tyler says are making a comeback (30:08). McDonald’s has a new secret menu, which Mark ordered from the other day (32:17). Malcom has never tried a Filet-o-Fish (36:14). I want to know if Malcom has ever cooked a Tri-Tip like Brisket (40:07). Finally, we’re rolling out the Red Carpet here at The Shop really soon (53:04).
