Meat Church BBQ

Meat Church is the barbecue brand of Matt Pittman from Waxahachie, Texas: a line of rubs and seasonings, a barbecue supply shop, cooking classes and a YouTube channel where he cooks on offset smokers, pellet grills and griddles. Most recipes use his own seasonings, and the full written versions live on the Meat Church website.

Burgers are a regular part of the rotation. His butter burgers mix butter into 80/20 beef, his griddle smash burgers are among his favourite ways to cook beef, and his firebox cheeseburgers sear a thick patty in the smoker’s firebox before finishing it in the smoke. Brisket trimmings get turned into beef tallow and smash burgers. His guest series brings in pitmasters and friends: Dayne Weaver shares the OG burger from Dayne’s Craft Barbecue in Aledo, NFL quarterback Jarrett Stidham makes crack burgers, and bass fishing champion Kevin VanDam helps cook Sean Brock’s crust burger.
