Lee Coronado, raised in Perryton, Texas, has always had a passion for experimenting with flavors. As a child, he would mix different sauces and condiments from the fridge together to create unique taste combinations, showcasing his natural curiosity in the kitchen. Lee's journey into the world of barbecue began when his good friend Matt Yara built an Ugly Drum Smoker. After trying the BBQ Matt cooked on it, Lee was hooked. Inspired by the flavors, he decided to build his own smoker and dive deeper into the art of grilling. That decision sparked his love for barbecue, eventually leading him to compete in SCA, CBA,KCBS, IBCA events. In his very first BBQ competition, he walked away with the Grand Champion title, and from that moment, he was fully committed to the craft! Today, Lee is the creator of Meat Hammer Rubs, offering a line of award-winning seasonings, including Meat Hammer All Purpose (1st place winner in the NBBQA poultry category in 2024), designed to elevate the flavor of any dish. His rubs are made with high-quality ingredients, never cutting corners when it comes to flavor, ensuring each product delivers the perfect balance of spice and taste. His products have become a favorite among grilling enthusiasts, backyard cooks, restaurateurs, and chefs alike. Lee continues to share his passion for barbecue, from his home base in Amarillo to pitmasters, cooks and food lovers across the country.

Join us and Blake, Owner and Creator of Bacana Grills
Blake lived in Brazil, where he fell in love with churrasco - not just the incredible food but the way it brought people together, connecting them through fire and flavor. When he returned to the U.S., he wanted to bring that tradition home. But nothing quite captured the essence of Brazilian barbecue - so he built it. Bacana makes it easy to bring the flavor and energy of Brazilian churrasco to any backyard. The multiple rotating skewers let you cook everything from picanha to chicken, sausage, and veggies - effortlessly delivering results. Whether it's a weeknight dinner or a big cookout with friends, Bacana isn't just great food - it's a show they'll remember.

Phil currently has 90 Grand Champion & Reserve Grand Champion wins combined, with over 300k Career Earnings. Phil grew up In Sour Lake, Texas, his love for food started at a young age, and sports fueled his competitive drive to be the best. He now resides in Bandera Texas with his wife Carmen and their four children. Phil’s first competition was in January of 2015…Hardin County Go Texan in Silsbee, TX. The cookoff had 19 teams and they only called top 3 places in each meat. Phil remembers “I sat on my butt through chicken, then ribs, then brisket until they got to 1st place…Boom! I was hooked.” Now borderline obsessed with the sport of competition barbecue he was constantly mixing up new concoctions to get an edge. That’s when Fowl Play was born. Phil went through many versions starting in 2016 until perfection was reached and he launched LC BBQ Fowl Play in 2018. This same method is still in place, He perfects each recipe and tests them in real competitions until the results let him know it’s a winner. Play Bull debuted later in 2018, with Bosshog and Angry Bull to follow in 2019.
