#65 Legacy & Innovation: Slap Someone Sauce + Nakia Coco Charcoal | Two Inspiring BBQ Stories

Some barbecue traditions are passed down through generations.

Others are created by people willing to challenge everything we thought we knew.

In this special double-feature episode of BBQ Therapy, host Tavis Bryant sits down with two guests who are shaping the future of barbecue in very different ways.

🔥 Interview One: Kiplon Taylor – Slap Someone Sauce

Before there was a business, there was a family recipe.

For more than 100 years, that recipe was carefully preserved through generations before Kiplon Taylor answered what he believes was God’s calling to share it with the world.

This conversation explores:

• The family legacy behind Slap Someone Sauce

• Turning faith into action

• Protecting a century-old recipe

• Building a brand without losing its roots

• Leadership, family, and entrepreneurship

• The vision behind the Slap Someone Sauce Food Truck Cook-Off

Then…

🔥 Interview Two: Nakia Coco Charcoal

What if the next major innovation in barbecue isn’t your smoker or your seasoning…

…it’s the charcoal?

Nakia Coco is changing the conversation by producing premium charcoal from recycled coconut shells, creating a cleaner, longer-burning fuel while reducing waste.

In this interview, we discuss:

• The story behind Nakia Coco Charcoal

• Why coconut shell charcoal performs differently

• Sustainability in the BBQ industry

• Winning trust in a tradition-driven market

• Entrepreneurship and resilience

• Building a company with purpose

• The future of barbecue fuel

Whether you’re a backyard griller, competition pitmaster, BBQ business owner, or simply someone who loves hearing powerful stories of faith, family, innovation, and perseverance, this episode delivers inspiration from beginning to end.
