073 Saffron Hodgson on BBQ Conferences

The Smoking Hot Confessions BBQ Podcast

This is Episode Seven of Season Six, my U.S. Road Trip Part II. In this episode, Saffron Hodgson, the woman behind Bush Cooking steps into The Confessional. Saffron is an Aussie expat, living in Seattle, Washington who is taking the US by storm. It was actually Saffron who kicked off this year’s trip to America when she invited Smoking Hot Confessions to be part of the official media team covering the National BBQ and Grilling Association’s annual conference. Here, we get an insight into what it takes to get a profitable website off the ground and then we go even deeper into what it takes to run a successful professional conference within the world of BBQ.

Before we get into it, I’d like to let you know about our awesome merch shop. We’ve got our incredible Smoking Hot Confessions Tumbler as well as hoodies, hats, t-shirts and stickers. There’s also two amazing ebooks - 27 Lessons Learned from Competition BBQ and the delicious Bacon Manifesto.

I’d also like to invite you to join us at the Smoking Hot Confessions BBQ Community on Facebook. If you’re looking for a BBQ group full of open-minded people who just love to help each other out, the Smoking Hot Confessions Community is a great place to continue the conversation.

Finally, however you’re listening to this episode, please subscribe, rate and review the show. It really helps me spread that BBQ love.

So without further ado, grab yourself a hearty cyber-brisket burger, and join me as I go behind the scenes at a professional conference with Saffron from Bush Cooking!
