Stagg and Co founder, Scott Bothe is our guest in this episode of the Smoking Hot Confessions BBQ Podcast. An Australian first, Stagg & Co are a BBQ dedicated co-packer that is committed to helping Australian BBQ brands make a name for themselves and get their products out into the world. Scott himself is no stranger to the BBQ world and has already conquered the scene in Australia, being one half of the 2017 Australasian Barbecue Alliance Grand Champion winning team. He’s even represented Australia at The Royal, in Kansas City - the most famous BBQ competition in the world. Now he has a new team, Bison BBQ, and managed to GC their very first competition straight out of the gate. 

In this interview, we find out about Scott’s experiences with competition BBQ, his proudest achievements in the world of meat and fire as well some hilarious things that have been less than an ‘achievement’! We then move into the story behind Stagg & Co, learning about how it was formed and what they do. This is fascinating for anybody looking to take their spice rubs to market. Scott also drops some great tips for people developing recipes right now. 

Finally, we move into the third segment where Scott shares some tips and advice not only for competing solo, but also for competing FIFO. That is, ‘Fly In Fly Out’. He draws on his extensive experience doing this around Australia and the United States and shares some surprising information about his record doing so. 

This is a great episode and is a real insight into the booming business of BBQ in Australia.
