Meet the Barbecue Lab team.
David and Melissa are passionate about barbecue.
For over 20 years, David and Melissa Gafford have been gathering people together through outdoor cooking.
From small get-togethers to large events, they've been cooking outdoors on every appliance they can get their hands on.
They started The Barbecue Lab in 2018 and quickly found an audience on YouTube and the web helping people embrace the best techniques and gear to make their backyard the only place friends and family ever want to be.
