In this episode Kevin chats with Daniel Castillo from Heritage Barbecue in Orange County, California. Daniel is doing central Texas style BBQ, but with his unique spin on it. He pop-ups at breweries around Orange County and pairs with that brewery to incorporate beer from that brewery into every item he is serving. Bonus, Daniel talks from Brett's Backyard Bar-Bar-B-Que in Rockdall, Texas because he is spending a week there learning the ropes. Because of this we get a tour and a lot more background about what Brett is putting out.
