From Backyard BBQ Pop-Up to Miami's Top BBQ Spot

Raheem Sealey

Raheem Sealey didn't start out as a BBQ pitmaster — but a pandemic, a backyard pop-up, and an obsession with perfecting brisket changed everything. In this episode the chef and founder of Drinking Pig BBQ walks us through his full journey, from growing up in the US Virgin Islands and opening KYU to launching a BBQ pop-up during COVID and turning it into one of Miami's most talked about restaurants in Coconut Grove. We get into what makes the perfect brisket, the BBQ scene in Miami, Wagyu brisket, pricing debates, the Charleston expansion, new flavors coming to Drinking Pig, and what it means to be ranked 3rd best BBQ in Miami. Plus Kiko's live brisket reaction, the BBQ pitmasters community, and his top 3 Miami restaurants. This is Miami BBQ at its absolute best.
