DESCRIPTION:
(from Destination America's press release, July 2015) With summer in full swing and Americans across the USA firing up their grills, Destination America is back to bring the country the best grilling techniques from expert pitmasters with a brand-new season of everyone's favorite competition series BBQ PIT WARS. Four professional BBQ teams will slather, slice and smoke their finest recipes traveling around the country, hitting the circuit in some of the most difficult conditions yet, attempting to become the next Pit Wars Grand Champion. Robbie Royal, a former Pitmasters champion faces off against his former mentor Myron Mixon the reigning champ of Pit Wars, ready to prove the student has become the master. Michael Character returns from last year with new grilling techniques and feels ready to prove his fare should not be underestimated! Finally, Ernest Servantes, hits the circuit with his Texan taste, planning to utilize an unexpected, secret technique to outshine his Georgia competitors. BBQ PIT WARS season two premieres Thursday, Jul. 23 at 10/9c on Destination America. This season of BBQ PIT WARS will broil down to one major factor: location. Each venue has different challenges and if the grill masters can overcome these potential setbacks, it will separate the good from the truly great. The competitions this year are tougher and bigger than ever before, with over 50 teams contending for the top spot and vying to take down the King of Q, Myron Mixon.
