Dead End BBQAusgabe 1

George Ewart’s journey into the world of barbeque began at the age of fourteen, when he learned the art of smoking and grilling from his father in their West Virginia backyard. Inspired by his grandmother Nell and her cherished sauce recipe, Ewart transformed this early love into a lifelong passion for barbeque. Years later, a casual pig roast he hosted on a quiet dead-end street in Knoxville, Tennessee, blossomed into a community event with hundreds of attendees, sparking Ewart’s competitive spirit. He earned recognition in local, national, and international barbeque contests—including representing Tennessee at the prestigious Jack Daniel’s World Championship Invitational Barbecue. Ewart’s iconic Knoxville restaurant, Dead End BBQ, showcases his mastery of the craft.
