Baseball and BBQ

Episode 306 features the Baseball Hall of Fame sportswriter, Bill Madden and the inventor of the FlipGrill, Andrew Barnhart

Bill Madden has been an active baseball writer since 1970 and was the New York Yankees beat writer for the New York Daily News from 1980 to 1988 before being promoted to national baseball columnist. He is the author of many baseball books and is with us to discuss his latest book, Yankees, Typewriters, Scandals, and Cooperstown: A Baseball Memoir. In 2010 he received the Hall of Fame's J.G. Taylor Spink Award, the highest honor of the Baseball Writers Association of America and is a member of the Writers Wing of the Basball Hall of Fame.

Andrew Barnhart loved cooking on his Big Green Egg. However, Andrew thought something was missing and that was how to turn chicken quarters without tearing the skin. His thoughts turned to the flipping racks used on professional chicken pits, "If an open pit can make amazing BBQ chicken, a Kamado with its controlled environment should be able to ‘blow it out of the water." He then invented the FlipGrill which can be used on many different Kamado grills and firepits. For more information on Andrew Barnhart and FlipGrill go to https://flipgrill.shop/
