***My KUTX is made possible with support from imogene + willie***
It’s become a rite of passage for foodies visiting Austin: making the trek out to Franklin Barbecue and waiting in line for some of the finest BBQ in Texas (let alone the world). And while you may already be familiar with the flavors fueled by Franklin Barbecue’s namesake – owner, pitmaster, and chief firestarter Aaron Franklin – you’ll definitely get a better sense of his personal tastes after this episode.
That’s because Aaron Franklin joined us ahead for one the many things he has his tireless hands in: the live food and music curation that is Hot Luck Fest, which returns to Austin May 22nd through May 25th. To spice up KUTX’s weekend schedule, Aaron graced us with a raucous collection of hard rockers – those who’ve played Hot Luck in the past, those who’ll play Hot Luck this year, and those on Aaron’s ambitious wish list for future Hot Luck rosters. Got your appetite up? Good. Press play and dig in.
