I met Garry at work and he introduced me to his charity. Shortly after I bought a smoker and started helping at the events. I started competing on his team and strive to help earn our first grand championship. I like learning, giving back, and I believe in the cause so it is win/win.

Jason retired from the Army in 2016. A Veteran with multiple combat tours to Iraq and Afghanistan, he hung up his boots to follow his second passion of BBQ. He opened up Squatchy's BBQ in 2017 and has been rolling smoke ever since.

Kyle's love for cooking is only outdone by his desire to help others. Whether it is making someone smile, or helping them "save a brisket" he is always ready to lend a hand.

Joseph served in the army from 1985 to 1994 and again from 2004 until his retirement in 2016, he earned the nickname of pop's or grandpa by the young whippersnappers he served with for being a wise and sexy old man.
