Pat Martin Is Fired Up About Barbecue

Pat Martin probably knows as much about whole hog barbecue as anyone in the world. Best known for his eponymous restaurant chain, Martin’s Bar-B-Que Joint, he’s also the host of a new TV show on the Outdoor Channel called “Life of Fire,” cooking with barbecue legends and hearing their stories. Pat wasn’t always headed for a culinary career - at one point he was working in finance - but he eventually realized his dream was to own and operate a restaurant that celebrated the food he loved most—West-Tennessee style whole-hog barbecue. Now Martin’s is one of the most successful barbecue franchises in the South, and Pat has become a champion of a labor-intensive style of cooking that is slowly disappearing.
