#BBQ #MixedGrill #bbqrescues — Can you believe the above Mixed Grill (pictured) was done in less than 2 Hours by a BBQ Lesson Client learning how to cook on a Gas Grill for the first time?

You may have noticed “tumbleweeds” rolling through BBQ Catering Confidential lately. True. I’ve been led astray by several projects, but have not wandered very far. Since winning for Grill Master on Food Network’s Cutthroat Kitchen, I had been invited to do a last minute 4th of July BBQ Catering at the legendary (former) Beatles Mansion in Hollywood Hills. I have made appearances at several local events including the Western Foodservice & Hospitality Expo at the L.A. Convention Center and 2015 National Night Out at The Greek Theatre. Last week, I was filmed catering an elegant BBQ Buffet for a very popular Reality TV Show. More details coming once I receive the Fall air date. Stay tuned.

#mickbrown #chefmickbrown #westernfoodserviceandhospitalityexpo — A big Thanks to the Western Foodservice and Hospitality Expo for the Invite to sample new and classic Foods and Brews.

Closer to home, I have launched a new series called BBQ RESCUES! with Chef Mick Brown. It is my first Multi-Media project featuring several platforms with a BBQ RESCUES! TV Channel on Youtube, BBQ RESCUES! Podcasts and Live Talk Shows on Blog Talk Radio, as well as BBQ RESCUES! Podcasts that just got added to iTunes. We are also building a http://www.BBQRESCUES.com website with links to everything, and that will offer Free Easy Grilling Recipes. Your patience is appreciated as I slowly grow familiar with all the new technical challenges.

There are already a few BBQ RESCUES! episodes available online. The first video was shot in Shreveport, Louisiana with me helping Chef Carolyn Manning, a potential James Beard Foundation Contest Winner, get votes for her BBQ Mushroom Burger. The next is a brief gag reel featuring BBQ Cannibal Birds competing to eat my BBQ Chicken in the Park. The latest one is filmed at Fairfield Place (the oldest Bed and Breakfast) in Shreveport and shows how you can use any BBQ Gas Grill as a Smoker.

#smoked #chickenbreasts #bbqrescues — As a Bonus, the Client learned how to Smoke Chicken Breasts over Indirect Heat on a Ceramic Egg Grill.

The Shreveport BBQ Mushroom Burger episode was also made into a Podcast, along with a two part broadcast from the 2015 National Night Out event at The Greek Theatre. There are some fun moments as I chat BBQ with several participants, including members of the LAPD, and some Community Groups. The biggest Highlights are probably the original audio performances by a seasoned Acapella group called JONDO. They were former competitors on America’s Got Talent, and BBQ RESCUES! is trying to help this talented musical group get more exposure.

#chefcarolynmanning #mushroomburger — BBQ Mushroom Burger at Blue Southern Comfort Foods in Shreveport, LA. made the Top 5 (actually 2nd Place), and is heading to New York. Congratulations to Chef Carolyn Manning on her exciting James Beard Foundation’s Better Burger Project win!

So far, it has been very fun developing the new shows. More BBQ RESCUES! material has already been filmed, including my family reunion in Shreveport and more from the Birthday Catering in the Park where I met the BBQ Cannibal Birds. This week, I am adding the very first Recipes to the BBQ RESCUES! Blog. They come from a Private Grilling Lesson where I helped the Beverly Hills Client learn how to use a Gas Grill for the first time. Then he throws a Cookout for about 20 Family and Friends on the same night. I hope you will enjoy a BBQ RESCUES! TV Video, Podcast or visit to the new website when you have a chance. Until next time, Eat and Be Well.
