10:00-11:00pm - In the 2nd hour, we knock down the 4th of 5 BBQCS Origin Stories with the one and only Melissa Cookston. We know Melissa as a hugely successful competition cook, then as an author, then as a TV host and now as a BBQ supply store owner. She is also active in major competitions and founded the World Jr. BBQ League. Where did she grow up? What was a young Melissa like as a kid and young adult? When did she get into the BBQ scene and how did she make her breaks to get to where she is today? All will be revealed tonight!
