Episode 294 is filled with members of their respective Hall of Fame's as we welcome Barbecue Hall of Fame member, Meathead and Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame member, Ryan Dempster. Plus we are joined by guest co-host Scott Crawford, Director of Operations for the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame.
Meathead is the founder and publisher of the immensely popular BBQ and grilling website AmazingRibs.com.  He is a   member of the Barbecue Hall of Fame and the author of Meathead: The Science of Great Barbecue and Grilling, a New York Times Best Seller and named one of the “100 Best Cookbooks of All Time” by Southern Living.  He is back with us to discuss his new cookbook, The Meathead Method: A BBQ Hall of Famer's Secrets and Science on Bbq, Grilling, and Outdoor Cooking with 114 Recipes.  For more information on Meathead, his books, and many other outdoor cooking related items go to <a href="https://amazingribs.com/" target="_blank">https://amazingribs.com/</a>
Ryan Dempster is a former Major League Baseball pitcher who played for the Florida Marlins, Cincinnati Reds, Chicago Cubs, Texas Rangers, and Boston Red Sox.  His great baseball career plus being from Canada made him a prime candidate for the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame which inducted him in 2019.  Ryan is the only Chicago Cub and one of just three players ever to both start a game and collect 30 saves in the same season. He has many great stories, including one involving Alex Rodriguez.  Ryan is a huge fan and admirer of the late great Chicago Cubs announcer, Harry Caray and he honors him with a well done and very humorous impersonation.  We are joined by guest co-host, Scott Crawford, who is the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame Director of Operations and adds some very special insight to the discussion.
