The Truth Behind Building Cowboy Kent Rollins Brand

What does it really take to build the Cowboy Kent Rollins brand? It wasn't one viral video or one lucky break. In this episode of Cowboy Coffee Hour, Kent and Shannon share the real story behind more than 15 years of hard work, from cooking on working ranches and competing on the Food Network to growing a community of over 7 million followers. We talk about turning down reality TV, filming with an iPhone, the biggest mistakes we made, and why consistency, faith, and authenticity mattered more than chasing trends. If you've ever wondered what happens behind the scenes of Cowboy Cooking, this is the conversation you've been waiting for.

When I Cooked for Alton Brown On Cutthroat Kitchen

In this episode, I recap my appearance on Food Network's Cutthroat Kitchen (season 14, episode 5: "The Good, the Hash and the Ugly"), hosted by Alton Brown. I cook through three rounds — hash, steak, cornbread dessert — against sabotages like a bucking chuckwagon, a spur-wielding mannequin, ingredients dunked in beer, swinging saloon doors, and a horseshoe toss, including hobbling a runaway horse costume mid-cook. Find out if I made it out with my money — or my dignity!

The World's Deadliest Disease That Built the American West

In this episode we're digging into the disease history books forgot — the plague that quietly reshaped frontier life, drove thousands to chase the Western sky, and left its mark on American cowboy culture forever. Tuberculosis, the world's most deadliest disease, has many interesting western connections, including how it helped create the cowboy hat, how it influenced where people settled and even what they ate!

Wild Critters in Camp: Raccoons, Snakes, Bears… and Jeff Goldblum?!

We're sharing some wild camp stories from years of cooking at the chuck wagon — and the critters that showed up uninvited. From raccoons raiding the camp kitchen and snakes slithering too close to the fire, these are the real wildlife run-ins that happen when you cook outdoors in the backcountry. And the wildest critter of all? That one had two legs — and his name is Jeff Goldblum. Sign up and get 10% off at https://BetterHelp.com/COWBOY [https://BetterHelp.com/COWBOY].
