So sad, he was mugged in 2018 and almost killed. They broke his jaw and kicked his head in. Deal did not go through, Peter Jones pulled out, but he opened a BBQ restaurant in London. It is still open and has gotten great reviews. Happy to see Joe make it!

Is this the first person in the den to say I have a letter of intent and actually has a letter of intent?
Finally a pitch I’ve never seen
I love everything about this guy and how casual he is. Bringing that letter of intent out of his pocket, folded into 4 pieces was epic - and also shows the state he's in. You can have confidence in the sincerity of this guy, one of the best characters I've seen in the den.

Peter’s deal was worse. “Tex” originally asked for the equivalent of 2,343.75 per 1%, But Peter’s offer was only worth 2,083.33 per 1% of equity. Peter actually undercut Kelly by 12%.

If his deal was worse that would be the opposite of undercutting, instead making a worse offer. Although it's true, Peter offered only 33% more cash and took 50% more equity, which also means Brewdog take a large share, but who in the right mind would choose to work with Kelly over Peter?
The few pitches where singing is done right and ain’t cringe. What a legend. In hindsight wish he selected anyone other than Peter.

The “yee haw” at the end was priceless. Love it.
Joe's nervous smiling is so endearing...
I met Texas Joe Walters before and he is a really nice guy. It was at one of his restaurants.

Why not get a prepaid order for 13% discount? It sounds like he's offered a large order not an investment?
Been hoping to see this one uploaded for a long time - such a memorable pitch. I had the opportunity to try some of his product a few years ago, very nice indeed.
So, Peter offers him an amazing deal, but then pulls out after the cameras stop rolling. Shame.

When you watch and listen to Peter, you’ll learn quickly how to deal. He always starts high and then works down, so he’s always closest to his druthers. It’s the art of the deal. Always brilliant. Dragons Den IS Peter Jones.
