When Ruben and @bradorrison from @theshedbbq get together, you already know there’s going to be plenty of laughs, a little trouble, and a whole lot of good times! 😂

BBQ may have brought them together, but it’s the genuine friendships, unforgettable memories, and moments like these that mean the most. ❤️

🔥 9TH IN THE WORLD! 🌎🏆

Just a quick update for everyone following along and messaging us! First off, THANK YOU to everyone back home and here in Indy for all the love and support. It means more than you know! 🙏🏼❤️

We’re currently sitting 9th at the World Food Championships BBQ competition, and it’s a tight race with some incredible competitors! Tomorrow, we’re headed into the WILDCARD ROUND, and we’re ready to use one of our favorite cuts!

I’m truly lucky and honored to be the head chef of such an amazing team. I couldn’t ask for a better group of people to stand beside, and I’m proud of what we turned in

A huge thank you to @blazingstarbbq for connecting us with @yodersmokers and thank you to Yoder for allowing us to cook on your incredible craftsmanship. We’re honored to have this opportunity, and we’ll be doing our entire cook today on your beautiful smoker! 🙌🏼🔥

We’re prepped, locked in, and ready to roll!

LET’S GO! 🔥💯🏆 by @smokinrubens

Nothing better than watching Sebastian’s love for grilling and cooking over an open fire continue to grow. 🔥❤️

Breaking in the new @webergrills he won at his very first BBQ competition @foothill.builders.mart with some wings seasoned with our Texas Lemon Dust 🍋 — COMING SOON! And some 🔥🔥 ranchera from @kingsmeatandbbqsupplyco 🥩🔥

So proud of this kid and can’t wait to see where this passion takes him! 🙌🏼🔥

The next generation is getting SHARP! 🔪🔥

Sebastian unboxing his very own personalized knife from @spaceman_knives — and this one is SPECIAL.

At only 13, he’s already finding his way around the grill, learning the craft, and building a love for BBQ all his own. Now he’s got a knife with HIS NAME on it to go along for the ride. 💪🏼🔥

Huge thank you to Spaceman Knives for the love and support you’ve shown our boy. It truly means more to us than you know. 🙏🏼

Now let’s see what Sebastian can do with this bad boy! 🔪🔥

Young pitmaster in the making… watch out! 👀
