The coolest thing to happen to Mark was a very generous customer that really believed in his business helping him out with a generator for his food truck. “I love the fact that good BBQ is very difficult to achieve and is often times disappointing, but when done right you’ll make the most loyal customer that will follow you to the ends of the earth.” Mark’s inspiration? “A very deep love for slow smoked meats and simplicity.”

As Mark Gabrick (aka The Hogfather) states on his company’s website, “When you think of Kansas City, BBQ is what comes to the top of mind.” The Discworld novels can be listened to in any order, but Hogfather is the fourth book in the Death series, a festive feast of darkness (but with jolly robots and tinsel too).The Cambro Featured Business of the Week is The Hogfather BBQ. If the real man in the red suit isn’t found by morning, there won’t be a morning. Belief is important in Discworld, particularly on the last night of the year when the time is turning. The stockings are hanging ready, the sherry and pies are waiting by the fireplace – but where is the jolly fat man with his sack? It’s not right to find Death creeping down chimneys and trying to say ‘Ho ho ho’ – but someone’s got to bring the little kiddies their presents. Twas the night before Hogswatch and all through the house…something was missing.

Featuring a new theme tune composed by James Hannigan. The audiobook of Hogfather is read by the BAFTA award-winning actor Sian Clifford ( Fleabag, Vanity Fair, Quiz), with BAFTA and Golden Globe award-winning actor Bill Nighy ( Love Actually, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows) reading the footnotes, and with Peter Serafinowicz ( Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace, Shaun of the Dead) as the voice of Death.
