I knew this was going to be the case while walking up to Brandon Roy’s patio, seeing a deep bed of hot coals glowing in his custom parilla. “You have to respect first contact,” he later says about grilling steaks perfectly. But way more goes into it. See, for Brandon Roy, the entire process of grilling and smoking meats is a labor of love. And it shows.
