In this episode I chat with Rob Magee from Q39 in Kansas City, Missouri. We get into his early background, his passion for food which took him from the C.I.A. to some of the best kitchens across the country. Then we delve into his growing passion for BBQ, his starting a BBQ competition team Munchin’ Hogs which went on to great success, and then translating that success to opening Q39 and two years ago a second location in Overland Park. One of the great takeaways from this interview is restaurant process. Rob goes deeply into opening restaurants, staffing, customer service, food service, design, location, etc. This is a great primer for someone looking to open a restaurant(BBQ or otherwise) and for someone who has a restaurant or food truck and wants to expand, grow, and evolve.See all things Q39 here: https://q39kc.comFollow Q39 on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/q39kc/See Q39 on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/Q39KCCheck Q39 out on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/Q39kc/

We talk the Barbecue Nation exhibit at the Atlanta History Center and the genesis and growth of the Georgia BBQ Trails website.

We explore his background, from large scale pig pickin' to his time at law school to the moment that pushed him into delving deeper into BBQ. We talk about his relationship with Green Button Farm and how he custom designed whole hog cookers with Melvin BBQ Grills that would be able to be used in a restaurant setting.
