Howdy, I love cooking the primitive way, with just wood and a fire. I've been fascinated and inspired by it since I was a boy. After 35 years of meddling with fires trying to conjure up the next best cook, I stumbled upon a larger purpose. I realized my 'why' was less about the end product and MORE about the spiritual pilgrimage of primitive style cooking. The enjoyment of prepping wood, getting a fire going, establishing a coal bed... I love being entangled by the many challenges within a cook and that process became the gift I didn't know I needed. The theater of primitive style cooking is simply magical, carrying with it a therapeutic value that can only be measured by my genuine joy of cooking. Along the way my inspiration led me to launch Primitive Pits (2015), Workhorse Pits (2019), El Bandido Grills (2022) and The Wood Fire Mercantile , all now on one campus in beautiful Cleveland, Georgia. The Quetorials Podcast is a hodgepodge of my inspiration, fascination, tips of wood fire cookery. I hope you enjoy! more

On a whim, host Kenyatta Robinson posted a clip on YouTube after he asked his daughter to film the arrival of his long awaited custom-built 20″ offset smoker from Lone Star Grillz. Kenyatta was surprised by the number of questions received about the smoker so he created a follow-up video where he described the features of the stick burner and and explained why he was interested in learning how to make BBQ with one. The video was well received and the channel was born in earnest back in 2018.Since then Kenyatta has amassed a number of other grills and smokers and continues to make videos about them. This podcast is an extension of the YouTube channel and is designed to give listeners another way to share in Kenyatta's insights about BBQ. more
