About

Built for people who love the craft.

I'm Dave. I handle everything for The Real MeatStick and show up as your friendly guide for BBQ, cooking, smokers, sausage making, and meat grinding.

My style is simple: clear steps, honest recommendations, and the "why" behind what's happening—so you can cook with confidence and repeat your results.

What I believe
  • → Precision beats luck.
  • → Great food is a skill you can learn.
  • → Integrity matters—especially with gear recommendations.
What you'll get here
  • → Recipes and workflows that actually work.
  • → Gear picks that make cooking easier.
  • → A mentor-like tone—no hype, no ego.
