This BBQ lover is all about the art, craft, and history of barbeque. From Texas Style to Kansas City burnt ends, the Expert Chef knows exactly what they’re grilling up, and they aim to do it right.

Sure, the BBQ sauce lover enjoys some pulled pork or ribs. But for them, the real star of the show is the sauce. They’re always mixing it up with classic BBQ sauces and dry rubs, like Alabama white barbeque sauce, or tangy, sweet St. Louis style, or bringing fresh flavours like Char Siu pork or Jamaican jerk style.
If you’re one of these BBQers, you have just as much fun choosing a flavour profile as you do on the grill.
BBQ is delicious — but for these grill lovers, it’s also a way of life! Cooking and enjoying BBQ gives these master hosts a chance to socialize with family and friends. Every time they fire up the grill, it seems to turn into a raging party!
It’s not just about the meat. From killer decor, to endless drinks, to sides and desserts their friends will line up for, these BBQers know how to set the mood.
The Kootenay life is all about getting back to the wilderness, and enjoying nature without giving up comfort and convenience.
No one understands that better than the hunter, who lives to hunt wild game, then butcher and barbecue it themselves. Whether they’re smoking elk and bison meat, or grilling small game like pheasant and rabbit, the Hunter’s BBQ is a true taste of the region they call home.
BBQ has an indulgent reputation. But there’s no reason it can’t be part of a healthy lifestyle!
The Healthy BBQer puts their health and fitness goals first, and BBQ is just part of how they enjoy reaching them. This BBQer might be a powerlifter or expert skier, who grills up chicken breasts every weekend as part of their meal prep. Or, they might even be a vegan or vegetarian who redefines BBQ by grilling and smoking their vegetables!
Either way, the Healthy BBQer knows that grilling outside is for everybody, whatever diet or macros they’re following.
