Tom Micklethwait has been at the forefront of the modern barbecue movement that has taken place in the last decade. From high quality meats to well made sides and condiments, Micklethwait Craft Meats has been serving all of the staples we’ve come to associate with craft barbecue since their beginning. As they celebrated ten years in business we sat down with Tom to discuss his career, the current state of barbecue, and his latest venture, Saddle Up, located next door to the barbecue trailer.
