New Column What Does BBQ Mean to You?

What does BBQ mean to you?
My Big Fat Daddy's blog will be changing a lot. I'm working on separating out the Big Fat Daddy's website again and am tired of talking all about myself.

So I wanted to go deeper and ask certain people I meet along the way just what does barbecue mean to them?

I will be throwing up interviews with competition teams, business owners,barbecue judges, bloggers, barbecue greats, and some people you'd never expect to hear from that I meet in my travels. 

The standard five questions will remain the same, though the answers and stories, and even barbecue memories will be different.

I've learned one thing along the way, that barbecue is the common denominator that brings folks together to eat a darn good meal and I'm thankful to all the folks that I've met in my travels.

Soon I'll be posting an interview for this column so please stand by.

Interview with Texas Brush Owner Bill Flannery


texas brush
After our A+ review of the Texas Brush, we decided to talk to Bill Flannery owner of the Texas Brush who
of course makes several TEXAS sized grill brushes right here in the USA .

Bill, can you tell us more about these brushes?

I have sold millions of our brushes , simply because they are well made and perform an essential task .  They were made specifically for ultimate cleaning of the grill and grills of any size. 

Yes, even our big grills, we can't believe it. They really hold up well!

Yes, they work on grills of any size (flat top or grated) -- withstand temperatures reaching well over 800 degrees. See when you’ve made one product since 1997 ,  you kinda understand what’s important to folks when cleaning the grill

We really like the engraved name on the side.  What are some names you have gotten? 
We offer custom engraving to make the Texas Brush a really funky and personalized gift .  Here are a couple of good ones we've gotten: 
  • " Vegetarian beating stick " 
  • " # 1 Dad "
  • " This ain’t no sissy brush "

So the personalization is a big hit!

One of  my favorite things to do , is after eating a a great restaurant , I will grab the owner , chef or managers card ,  then we will make up a personalized brush and ship it out with a short note . It’s a great way to thank folks for a great meal and an easy way to get our product into the hands of people that will appreciate it .

We assume you are a grillmaster yourself, so what does grilling mean to you?
 
I love fire !  The crackle and smell of mesquite! The fact that pecan or hardwood charcoal gives meat and fish an unbeatable new flavor . Yeah sure, gas is easier , but nothing beats hardwoods for flavor!  I use a propane torch to start the fire a bit quicker, but not too quick . See I use the extra time getting the grill ready to visit , make some cocktails and enjoy the ceremony of grilling . 

We notice you have special "flash sales" on the brushes and some benefit charities! Where should people look for these specials? 

We do sales to the public in fact here is a link to a flash sale Sale for TexasBrush on recoup.
