"Far better than I even hoped for and worth every cent many times over." - Don H., BBQ Stars buyer
Don H.
"Just a few words to tell you how much I enjoyed BBQ Stars. It is far better than I even hoped for and is worth every cent many times over. It is so far superior to the YouTube videos out there that there is no comparison. I have looked at Masterclass courses but...BBQ Stars is far more diverse with BBQ experts. The BBQ Star launch has been really amazing, and I hope that you continue the great work. Put me on the signup list for season 2!"
Richard
"I've gone back through all the episodes...seeing them all at least twice... and many three or more times...
I was in the kitchen last night at midnight, mixing sauce ingredients and eating them on rolls...I hope I don't get over this any time soon...the next family reunion menu has changed dramatically..."
Sergeant Steak
"This course is awesome. I'm only halfway through the lessons and having the ability to rewatch any of them is priceless. This is so much more than a competition BBQ class. Competition is still covered, as is fire management, charcoal vs lump vs wood, and so much more. These superstars are also as accessible for Q&A. If you've been on the fence about it, know that you will not be disappointed."
Randy
"Just completed my first meet up with Tuffy. Wish I had learned from hime years ago. I'll be tweaking my methods. Awesome learning experience. Already have recouped my investment in this course. In the first video with Tuffy and many more to come. I'll be upping my game with BBQ when this series is complete."
Steve B.
"I’m all over this!!! If you are serious about your grilling but not sure if you want to get to the pro competition level, this is perfect 👌🏽! I love ❤️ that you can keep going back to learn again & again so that you can ‘get it right.’ BRAVO 👏🏽"
Al
"I find this series of videos extremely valuable because of the attention to detail and expert descriptions each chef conveys. The wide variety of subjects was a surprise. Can't wait to try some of Harry Soo's asian fusion ideas. I've heard Dave Buska in person before but am finding that on video I can pay closer attention to his techniques. This week I cooked Matt Pittman's #meatchurchstar Texas BBQ chicken. It was awesome. Additionally, the BBQ Stars video production quality is top notch."
Ted
"The collective knowledge is tremendous. The production value is fantastic.The results are fantabulous!"
Chris
"You really helped my brisket game out through this epic series. Highly recommend signing up!"
Susan
"Watching Harry Soo. This is the best investment I have ever made. Thanks. BBQ Stars."
