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!","last_synced_at":"2026-07-17T10:18:41.136077+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/quetorials-7582863"},"episode":{"title":"Tips On Seasoning Your Smoker Like A Pro!","slug":"tips-on-seasoning-your-smoker-like-a-pro","published_at":"2026-03-10T22:08:42+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/quetorials-7582863/tips-on-seasoning-your-smoker-like-a-pro","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/quetorials-7582863","url":"https://rss.com/podcasts/quetorials/2618201","audio_url":"https://content.rss.com/episodes/354451/2618201/quetorials/2026_03_10_21_25_37_42bf8369-3f1f-4b2c-8720-ec4bf08061f2.mp3","summary":"If you just bought a new smoker, don’t fire it up until you hear this.
