Crushing Competition BBQ | Daniel Barrington | Smoked Beyond Smoked

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Daniel Barrington from Smoked Beyond Smoked joins me in The Confessional for this episode of the Smoking Hot Confessions BBQ Podcast. We recorded this shortly after he was awarded Grand Champion on the second day of the incredible Brisbane BBQ Festival. This was an Australasian Barbecue Alliance double-header event, an Australian first, and just makes Daniel’s feat even more incredible - he won the second competition of the weekend, meaning he outcooked AND outlasted many other BBQ pitmasters there with more experience than himself. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">With a lifelong passion for food and a dream of being a chef, competition BBQ came naturally to Daniel and he’s dedicated his life to becoming the best pitmaster he can be, and wanting to turn out some of the best BBQ in the world. In fact his dedication to Southern food has been recognised by many others in the industry and Daniel was recently hired as head pitmaster at the new Phat Boyz Smokehouse & Kitchen in Walloon. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In this full episode of the Smoking Hot Confessions BBQ Podcast, Daniel and I get into:</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br /></span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Baking cheesecakes in a smoker (4:49)</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">His love for cooking on his OzPig (7:59)</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">How he prepared for the Brisbane BBQ Festival (15:58)</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">What he learned from his Mum about cooking (24:23)</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">How he came to be at Phat Boyz Smokehouse & Kitchen (32:59)</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Daniel’s best tips and tricks for
