We’ve been blessed with some very nice press coverage and we are grateful! You might have seen us on BBQ Paradise on the Travel Channel and Bon Appétit Picks the Best on the Food Network.Mike is also featured on two different episodes of Unwrapped. And Playboy just named us "Top 10 BBQ Joints" in America.
Mike talks about 17th Street and his competition memories of Memphis May in these compelling audio slideshows produced by Mark Dolan, the BBQ Pilgrim.

This is a particularly good interview with Professor Salt and you can read and listen to this fun field trip we took with NPR's Jennifer Ludden.

These video interviews are kind of entertaining, too. Watch Mike explaining the intricacies of judging a whole hog at a barbecue competition and on the streets of New York City at the Big Apple Barbecue Block Party.

Here is a succinct factsheet that might be helpful for reporters. And here’s a list of other media who’ve covered Mike and 17th Street.
