Our celebrity co-host was fellow soulmate in the swine-esphere, Michael Lopez, food and beverage director at the Forum Tucson. Michael talked about his passion for the pig and how he approaches breaking one down when serving swine for large groups. We also checked in with Chef Gabriel Quihuis of Zinburger, who shared some delicious news about his #ZinfullMoment initiative and how it could win you free Zinburger for a year! Rod Miller of E & R Pork stopped by as well to talk about the pigs he supplied for this big BBQ bash and how his breeds stand out from the rest. Our featured guests were Red’s own Ramiro Scavo and C.J. Hamm, who walked us through their take on ‘cue, their majestic smoker, and the beers and whiskeys that were showcased at this first annual Red’s rager. What a ‘cue crew!
