He Won the Barbecue Hall of Fame in 2011
Since he was 12 years old, Guy dreamt of competing at the American Royal, a competition that most chefs regard as the Super Bowl of BBQ. In preparation, he enrolled at a barbecue camp taught by Lola Rice, a former winner. While at this camp, he met an architect, a pharmacist, a truck driver, and a computer tech expert.
