About Meat Church

Meat Church started when Matt Pittman took a trip to Central Texas and had one life-changing bite of salt-and-pepper brisket. That was it—BBQ had him hooked.

Matt grew up cooking with his Grandma June in Alabama, learning the value of simple, great-tasting food. But once the BBQ bug bit, he went all in. Backyard cookouts turned into full-blown competitions. His passion landed him a spot on the hit TV show BBQ Pitmasters, where he realized he could share his signature spice blends with the world. That’s how Meat Church Holy Cow—his first rub—was born. And let’s just say, folks ate it up.

These days, Meat Church is about more than just making killer rubs. It’s about building a community of BBQ lovers who want to cook better, eat better, and have a damn good time doing it. Whether you’re learning from our YouTube videos, joining one of our BBQ classes, or just firing up the pit with our seasonings, we’re here to help you make next-level barbecue.

When Matt’s not preaching the gospel of great BBQ, he’s at home in Texas with his wife, Tracie, and their four kids—probably throwing another log on the fire.

Welcome to Meat Church. Let’s cook.
