A Tradition of Extraordinary BBQ
For 100 years, generations of ordinary people have worn Dickies to do extraordinary things. Pitmaster Kevin Bludso makes extraordinary Texas-style BBQ using skills passed down from his “granny.” Every bite of Bludso’s BBQ represents four generations of passion, work ethic, and humility.
“A hard day’s work is nothin’
to be ashamed of.”
As a kid, Kevin spent summers working alongside his great-aunt in Corsicana, TX, away from his Compton, CA home. “Granny” taught him to make BBQ using simple instructions—but BBQ is never simple. It requires patience, dedication, and a little bit of love.
Today, Kevin’s BBQ is world-famous and tells a story that starts with his great-grandfather, pays homage to Granny, and humbly represents the streets of Compton with a wink and a nod to Corsicana.
