Default BBQ show on Destination America

Earlier this year, a brethren posted and asked if any BBQ shows were coming on. I just ran across one I had never heard of, "Bama-Q", and according to the information given, it is from competitions. Tomorrow morning, there are two half-hour segments (8 & 8:30 am EST), with the second show being about The Jack, part 1. With the weather being horrible for much of the East coast this weekend, this may be the best way to get a fix.

Bama-Q is just a 30 min commercial disguised as a TV show.

Time for some new BBQ Pitmasters shows.

Thanks for the heads up on the show. I agree about new BBQ Pitmasters shows, but I am afraid the peak of popularity may be gone. Myron has enough funds to produce it himself, if he so desired.

Give it a watching just in case you are fond of it. You may fancy it.

If you ever can't fall asleep at night - turn on Bama-Q. The fastest way to cure insomnia I know of.

Hey, I love watching bbq shows but I agree. I am not sure I made it through a whole 30 minutes without nodding off. My hopes were high when I saw it though. Just watch it in the morning instead

Here is what I lean when I watch the show:

1) People seem to cook with boxes of the sponsors products all perfectly lined up on their grills by mere chance <sarcasm>;
2) People drink at 7:07 and just happen to be surrounded by the sponsors boxes and coolies.

I had such high hopes. But it is a stunningly lame show.

Glad to hear everybody else found Bama-Q to be an absolute bore...I was feeling a bit cynical about it, but guess it's not just me. Everything about that show is just boring...even the host is bored out of her mind.

I enjoy getting insurance mailers from the rich, large motor home owner Chester. No way in heck his rates are low living in most exclusive city in AL. The host gal drives me nuts, watched 1st season on Amazon. No tks for any more.

I actually haven't seen the show till just this morning, so coincidental timing of this thread. Watched the 8am episode and now the 8:30 where they are at the Jack. A lot of what has been said is clearly true, but I don't expect much from BBQ shows. Having competed with a lot of these teams and being friends with a few it is semi-interesting to watch.

The Jack episode has me interested just because we've been there ourselves previously and you don't always get to see much from the Jack.

The product placement is what it is since how else will they get a small show like this to be produced? And if you don't compete then I can see how this show also wouldn't appeal as much because it just isn't produced as well as pitmasters was.

After the controversy a few weeks ago on social media and the KCBS response to it, team breaking KCBS rules was shown on show yet that team won the category. I dont remember if they won GC or not plus I was only reading responses. i gotta admit I am wanting to watch it just to see how obvious it was.
