Arlie introduced as self-proclaimed 'Don King of BBQ' (and it's fucking true)
The Del Mar Grillfest 2013 birth of this event
We started this podcast to talk about business and marketing
Arlie became interested in bbq 8-9 years old from grandfather who would bbq in his barn
Arlie remembers bbq-ing hogs for the holidays with the family, his dad never shared his recipes with kids, died with recipes
A few years ago, Arlie found his old property his family used to live on and the bbq pit is still there from the early 60s
Arlie was born in Nashville, Tennessee
Arlie married his wife who worked for Jack Daniels, and they put on an event together (the rest is history)
Arlie learned from Mike Mills and John Willingham - learned how to bbq from spending time with them
Arlie's neighbors bought a (BBQ) pit with him and they started doing some Bluegrass showcases and music events (late 80s)
Downtown Nashville has become commercialized
After Arlie started his catering business, he started to do some bbq cookouts
KCBS events, Arlie-Q: https://www.kcbs.us/

Everything you do as a bbq team helps to brand and show people who you are and what you represent
It is important to ensure brand consistency, and be transparent through social media
