Episode 322 features Big Green Egghead, Captain Ron and former Major League Baseball player and current college baseball coach Frank Catalanotto Ron Dimpflmaier aka Captain Ron is taking the adage, "If you love what you do, you will never work a day in your life" and incorporating it into his career path. As a representative for the Big Green Egg, Ron travels, cooks barbecue on his favorite cookers, and meets people who want to talk food. His endearing personality makes him a perfect representative for the cooker which has developed a devoted fanbase. We met Captain Ron at the National BBQ Festival where he was cooking and entertaining for large crowds.
