LOTZ OF BBQ STAFF SPOTLIGHT: MEET BRIAN LAIRD!
Today, we want to recognize and show our appreciation for one of our very first team members, Brian Laird!
Brian joined our crew when we first opened our permanent location, and he has become an incredibly important part of Lotz of BBQ.
Today, Brian serves as our Pitmaster, working alongside me. In fact, he’s the first pitmaster I’ve ever fully trusted to handle everything from trimming the meat to the finished product. If you know me, you know how seriously I take my barbecue. That trust doesn’t come easily!
I have to admit, Brian has taken a HUGE weight off my shoulders. Knowing I can trust him to maintain our standards allows me to focus on other responsibilities and continue growing this business.
What I appreciate most about Brian is his willingness to learn. He’s always eager to improve, never afraid of hard work, and continues getting better with every cook. That’s exactly the kind of dedication I value on my team.
Brian, thank you for your hard work, loyalty, and dedication to Lotz of BBQ. I’m proud to have you as our pitmaster, and I’m excited to see how much further you’ll grow!
Everyone, give Brian some love!
Where there’s BBQ, there’s family.

Descriptions: A man wearing glasses, a light gray baseball cap, a black Lotz of BBQ T-shirt with orange lettering, and tan shorts stands beside a large black barbecue smoker outdoors. He smiles at the camera while holding a long blue-handled fire poker with both hands, tending burning logs inside the smoker’s open firebox. Bright orange flames and glowing red coals illuminate the scene. A tattoo is visible on his forearm. Behind him are a black metal fence, green grass, trees, and parked vehicles. The warm evening sunlight gives the photograph a professional, inviting appearance.
