Real fire.
Serious smoke.

Competition-grade brisket, ribs and burnt ends — plus chicken, seafood and pulled pork — all cooked low, slow, and over real wood. Every cook is written up as a free, step-by-step recipe, with pitmaster tools to plan your own.

No shortcuts.
Just smoke & patience.

Saucy Rossy BBQ is honest, wood-smoked barbecue out of the Maritimes — the kind that takes all night and every bit of it is worth it. Brisket, ribs and burnt ends are just the start: chicken, seafood, pulled pork and whatever else the fire calls for. From backyard cooks to competition podiums, it's all about big bark, deep smoke rings, and flavour you can't rush.

All of it over real wood and live fire — on a 250-gallon custom-built R&R offset smoker, a Traeger Woodridge Pro, a Napoleon Phantom Prestige 500 RSIB with stainless griddle insert, a Napoleon charcoal grill, a Black Earth Grills Roam v2 live-fire camp grill, and more.

Follow along for full cooks, pit tips, and the occasional wood-fired pizza — new videos and behind-the-scenes on YouTube, Instagram and TikTok.

Book Ross for your event or your cook

I'm not a caterer — I'm a BBQ creator and competition cook. There are two ways to get me in your corner: bring me out to your event, or get me one-on-one to level up your own cooking.

  • Event appearances
  • Live cook demos
  • Content & collabs
  • Meet & greets
  • 1-on-1 coaching
  • Competition prep

Appearances — bring me to your festival, store opening, product launch, fundraiser or backyard bash as a guest BBQ personality. I'll cook over live fire, talk shop, shoot content with my audience along for the ride, and pull a crowd. Based in Nova Scotia and happy to travel for the right one.

1-on-1 BBQ coaching — hop on a call and we'll dial in your cook: brisket that stays juicy, ribs with the right bite, comp-day timing, whatever you're chasing. Both are paid bookings, priced per client depending on scope — tell me what you've got in mind and we'll sort out the details.
