ABOUT THE ?BBQ PITMASTERS? JUDGES:

?

Myron Mixon:?As a three-time world barbecue champion, Myron Mixon is the winningest man in all of barbecue. He is the chief cook of the?Jack?s Old South?Bar-B-Que Team and a?New York Times?bestselling?cookbook?author. Since his first competition in 1996, Myron has won more than 180 grand championships and has built a barbecue brand with his own line of sauces, seasons, and custom-built smokers.

?

Tuffy Stone:?Classically trained French chef and former Marine, Tuffy Stone, aka ?The Professor,? began researching slow cooking barbecue methods and in 2004, the?Cool Smoke Team?was born. Since then, Cool Smoke has won 30 grand championships in large part due to Tuffy?s unique obsession with the physics and science of wood, smoke, spices, and molecular composition of meat to the point at which he creates barbecue perfection.

?

Aaron Franklin:?At the encouragement of friends, Aaron Franklin began barbecuing his brisket out of a trailer on an East Austin parking lot in late 2009. He and his wife debuted?Franklin BBQ?to rave reviews from patrons and press alike, with?Bon Appetit?even hailing their barbecue as the best in America. The Franklins have since outgrown their trailer, but Franklin BBQ?s line is as long as ever, and the restaurant has sold out of brisket every day of its existence.
