How many times in the past week have you either heard someone say or you yourself have actually said you were tired. Or, you are worn out. Or, have you experienced burnout or know someone who has experienced burnout? When you are cooking brisket or pork butt, what do you do when you take it off the smoker? REST. And that is what we talk about in today's episode!

And as always, keep checking back to the podcast, the website or subscribe to the newsletter to stay up to date on what is happening around the pit. (FYI…you can subscribe to the newsletter on our website…uhem, go do that please!).

Quotes and Scriptures from the episode:

• "Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under the trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time." - John Lubbock

• "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." - Matthew 11:28 (NIV)

• "Rest and be thankful." - William Wordsworth

• "On the seventh day, God rested from all his work." - Genesis 2:2 (NIV)

Remember: BBQ is known for being low and slow cooking that produces a fantastic reward. Life as a pitmaster is the same. You have to put in the low and slow efforts to produce the fantastic reward: a legacy of impact! Until next time: season some meat, start a fire, and make an impact!
