What’s Cookin’? — The McLemore Boys Podcast
Episode 21 of What's Cookin' with The McLemore Boys. The night before the Freedom 250 bus unveiling at Talladega, the boys sit down trackside with the pit crew that's been hauling 500 pounds of beef and running the smoker all week. The build started as a dare: turn a 16ft shipping container into a working commercial smoker. They actually pulled it off.
