Barbecue isn’t just a business for Brandon—it’s a calling. A Navy veteran, former mental health counselor, and lifelong outdoorsman, his journey to the pit has been anything but ordinary. From serving in the military to guiding in the mountains, his experiences shaped a deep appreciation for tradition, craftsmanship, and the power of a well-cooked meal. He first learned to cook over an open fire with cast iron, but it wasn’t until 2020, during the height of the pandemic, that his passion for barbecue truly took hold. With time to experiment, refine his technique, and perfect the slow-smoked flavors of brisket and pork, what started as a backyard pastime quickly became a craft he was determined to master.

For Brandon, barbecue is more than a meal—it’s a reflection of hard work, dedication, and the values that matter most. Every brisket, every rack of ribs, and every cut of pork that comes off the smoker is prepared with care, precision, and a respect for the process. Inspired by faith and a desire to create something lasting for his family, he launched Constitution BBQ to bring people together over bold flavors and real, honest food. Whether he’s fine-tuning the perfect bark on a brisket or passing down his skills to his kids, Brandon is building something bigger than barbecue—he’s building a legacy.
