I like that Arron is the kind of guy to do almost nothing with his You Tube channel for 7 years then drop a gem of a interview like this.

What I love most about BBQ KZread is how it bring about collabs like this that would have never have happened if it weren’t for KZread. Great conversation.

Franklin inspired me back in the his early PBS days to start making the best BBQ!!

Franklin greatly inspired me to start building my own pits. Also to want to cook great bbq. I remember in one episode him saying, you have to cook a lot of bad bbq before you can cook great bbq. That gave me inspiration to not give up. Thank you Aron Franklin and also Jeremy Yoder. I have learned a ton from you both, and still trying to reach that level of great bbq.

He's literally the Daft Punk of bbq. He drops some info once every 5 years and all of us in the bbq community eat it up! And he just goes on with his life not knowing how much we all look up to him.

Hats off to Franklin for being the Godfather but Jeremy (and your friends) don't EVER sell yourselves short. You younger modern KZread guys are who I have learned so much from. I have spent so many hours watching all of y'alls videos for years. Because of you and your boys I have a real offset smoker and love this new hobby.

I see that you have watched the movie. It's interesting that you mentioned Oppenheimer, even though he was responsible for a lot of deaths. Perhaps BBQ has a similar background.

It is a pleasure to see the two people I most admire in the BBQ world having a conversation like this and sharing it later. Thank you both for your generosity and your inspiration. Smoke on!

Great way to spend some time this afternoon. Love it when a couple guys I follow individually collaborate. Awesome!

Loved this! Two of my favorites in a casual conversation. Lots of great information.

I could listen to fire management stuff like this for hours...please do more.

Thank you Aaron for your generosity sharing all your knowledge and experience over so many years.

"Maybe you should run for office" was just perfect! 😂 The breakdown of why a deflector plate was used was fascinating. The passion involved in designing the Franklin pit was on full display there. Awesome video!

These two are great! BBQ nerds without ego!

Hey Franklin. I had bookmarked a ton of recipe sites and cooking videos from KZread. I was hoping to maybe start going through them one day and start practicing a bunch of different recipes. So anyways, I came across your show "BBQ With Franklin" and watched the first two episodes so far. The first one being about brisket and the second about sausage. I really enjoyed them. So I decided a moment ago to see if you had a channel on KZread so I could send a message. And here it is. So thank you for the show and the KZread content you've posted. I appreciate that. 👍

Awesome! Thank you for sharing!! 🤗

I can only think of one instance where there is a long discussion about heat deflector plates - and that instance is a conversation with Jeremy and Aaron 😂😂😂. Well done 🤟🤟

I started following Aaron around 2016 and made my own smoker following his design in 2018. 5 years later I still love using that smoker. I could listen to Aaron all day. Excellent idea for a video, Thank you!

As a classical musician, I really appreciate your usage of Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana. Bravo on your music selection and excellent BBQ. 👏👏👏

What a treat watching two of the greatest from the smoker's world of BBQ. I've watched and learned so much from you guys. I've built two smokers from the ground up using your principles and they work great. But now ! I have to replace the " pitched down" baffle to a flat style to see how that works. Fortunately I made the baffle a bolt on affair so it will be easy to replace. Thanks guys !

We all need more of that! Great time!

This is great. I love it when Aaron goes deep. More of this kind of content please! 👏

Franklin is the GOAT in many ways but his series 10 years ago on PBS was what really did it for me. I was decent with BBQ figuring it out my own way but then he just gave us something to watch and from an actual legit pro it was a game changer for me! Water pans, Butcher paper, fire management and wood selections was amazing back then! Thanks Franklin you are the SHIZ! Great interview!

2 of my favorites! Love this series

I will happily say that the BBQ with Franklin and the PBS series, and MasterClass was my original teacher for doing BBQ. I've built on the original lessons with Jeremy Yoder at @madscietistbbq, Joe Yim @knoxavebbq especially his how to trim a brisket, and Steve Gow @smoketrailsBBQ with his many experiments. Aaron's video earlier this year on fire management and the right size pieces of wood solved all my temperature spike problems. The Texan that introduced me to central Texas BBQ commented that my brisket and ribs were dead on solid earlier this month. Much better than a previous comment "the best brisket I've had in New Jersey"

I mirror a lot with Jeremy Yoder in that I was in Southern California and discovered central Texas bbq on a trip to Austin and fell in love. I then tried to smoke stuff by myself, with ZERO knowledge. Then BBQ with Franklin came out and those episodes really REALLY helped me get started on a "real" smoking. Been smoking meat ever since then and really appreciated the BBQ with Franklin series for getting me started on how to smoke things properly.

Great conversation! I loved the Franklin video series on how to build a smoker from propane tanks!

Thank you - this was a wonderful video and it shows a lot of how you apply your other experiences to cooking! Really enjoyed it!

Always good to hear from Franklin.

Franklin eres el mejor !!! Te mando un fuerte abrazo desde Naucalpan Estado de México

I am always happy when this channel pops up a new video. Thanks

Love when they get down to the super technical talk about air flow. Would like to see more of that with other topics.

I’m so happy he’s on your show! You seem like a really nice genuine person and I’m glad to see good things come to good people !!!

Great video need more of them

Very interesting, a lot of great information was thrown out there. Thank you.

Wow! That was super great. Love hearing about all the thinking that goes into making the best barbecue and cookers. Cheers!

We need more!!!!

2 of my absolute favorite guys in BBQ. Thanks for doing this!

What a great video from two of my favourite BBQ guys. Thank you so much for sharing and as per normsl its always informative.

This is great. Thanks for the content.

I would like to request two things. One is a Full 12 hours of Aaron cooking a brisket kind of like a Yule Log video for Christmas but him just cooking and talking the whole time by the smoker. The second is more video content. Anything at all. Him shopping or maybe him going on a walk. We all need more Aaron in our lives.

Such an awesome video, thank you both!!

Jeremy has been my best resource as I've gotten started in BBQ. Great conversation between two legends!

I visited Franklins for the first (and only) time in 2015. I bought my first smoker 2 weeks later. Both of you are an inspiration. ❤

PBS is how I found you. Miss you on there, but so grateful to have found you on the Tube! My smoking will carry on😊

Awesome video! Great job guys!

Those original BBQ with Franklin videos were also what got me started. They continue to be my bbq bible, even 10 years later.

A.F is just soooo chill. Ya'll both great. Keep it up

Jeremy I think was in shock. Being very technical he was just taken to school by the master. It was almost as if Aaron purposely brought him on to humble him. 🙂. And I’m a fan of Jeremy.

Great video! Thanks for sitting down with the mad scientist. I love the barbecue collaborations.

🎯💯🎯💯🎯💯🎯💯🎯 this was my road too!!!!!!! Love this!!!!!

Very interesting video. Thanks for posting

I too have watched the BBQ with Franklin youtube videos about a thousand times! Aaron is able to articulate some very subtle details well

Absolutely FASCINATING!! I'm hoping to score an offset in September...I would really like to see a part #2 and #3 maybe on just your thoughts fire building and management. All that insight on moving fire forwards and back...and ash, etc.... Anyway, great video content here....23min flew by...I could have easily sat and listened for a couple more hours. CC

Franklin is passionate with his craft and explains what he has put into practice so all can make magic known as BBQ! Very cool

Man I hope you do more of these instructional videos this is amazing

Awesome content! Thanks

Great interview! I still watch the PBS how to videos for pulled pork, ribs, brisket and turkey!

I've been following you since the PBS series; looking forward to tasting your BBQ soon😊

Had I not known who these guys were before watching the interview, I would have thought Aaron was the "Mad Scientist" with all of his knowledge of induction, convection, fire management, fire placement, wood selection, etc. This guy has forgotten more about BBQ than I could ever hope to attain! I'm a big fan of Jeremy Yoder and have watched and been inspired by many of his videos, but after watching this interview I now realize that Aaron Franklin is on a whole 'nother level. Super interesting interview! Would love to hear more!

This was one of the most interesting things I've ever watched on KZread. So much great information. Jeremy always had a scientific approach (obviously) yet Aaron's level of knowledge really seemed to change the way he views smoking and smokers.

This is amazing. Thanks

I met Aaron a couple months back. Drinking beer in a parking lot having a conversation just like this. He’s such an authentic and engaging person.

Wow...this is amazing.

It's good to see you doing a video again.

I live in Panama City, Panama.....and Jeremy is right...Mr. Franklin is the GOAT...i started bbq watching his old videos and trying to obtain the same or closest results...thanks for the knowledge shared.

What an awesome interview

Man it’s good to see you back on the tube. Love it

Awesome!

Loved this show, I only wish I could afford one, not even in my life time as a retired Veteran, the best I can do is a weber for hamburgers and Steaks

I'm a smoking newbie and lots of just regular folks on KZread have helped me a bunch. Especially some really small channels. Great community on here.

Aaron is the Godfather of Texas BBQ. He climbed a mountain in Texas and God handed him down a brisket from which to learn. I still use his channel for a reference. I have his books including the new one. I use his charcoal. He is my first stop for BBQ info. He and Chuds bbq are my favorite BBQ youtube channels.

Some moments here have the “Aaron playing 4D Chess while Jeremy believes it’s checkers” kinda vibe but its so good to see Bbq folks talk bbq

Great video

Solid interview. Thanks!

I had no idea who Franklin was when I first saw the “BBQ With Franklin” PBS videos on KZread. I found it very inspiring and entertaining, which is magic. I’m not doing a lot of BBQ, but I’m better now because of those videos.

I enjoyed hearing about the fire management. I definitely agree that the cook has a lot to do with the air follow and fire position in the box. I ve played with this function and notice a difference in my bbq cooks and heat management.

This was awesome!

Aaron, thank you 4 your video ! I think and thing u are the best BBQ in US, when i so u in Chef movie, u can made movie about your BBQ business ! I am very sad u are not in Europe....so, Thank you and God bless you and All the best, Enjoy...live, good, job and take care from Czech republic...if u go in Czech for tour i are billionare.....Zola

This video needs to go to the hall of fame. It needs to be archived in some government bunker.

Arron as a grown man I have to admit I have a man crush on you bro. Love how you share what you know with us. Thank you Sir
