Selling Beef Ribs Cheaper Than Everyone Else - Tyler's Barbecue

Smoke(less)

Show Notes

Tyler Frazer of Tyler’s Barbeque joins the Smokeless boys for part two of a wide-ranging conversation covering Texas beef ribs, rising barbecue prices, the new generation of pitmasters and life behind the scenes at his Amarillo restaurant. Tyler explains why he keeps his beef ribs at just $16 per pound, even as customers elsewhere are paying as much as $75 for a single rib. He also gives us a tour of the joint before the conversation turns to social media, family time and why so many of us are recording life instead of actually living it.
