Happy early Father's Day to all the dads in Dead Meat Society. If you're reading this, that means there's a good chance you'll be the one cooking this weekend. Drop this week's cook in the Dead Meat Society Facebook group or tag us on Instagram.

Now, here's what we've been cooking up all week…

First up, Father's Day is Sunday, and AmazingRibs put together the full BBQ menu (smoked brisket, Santa Maria tri-tip, baby back ribs with a sugar crust, and pulled pork done right). Also, Rodney Scott lost his restaurants but didn't lose his fire. And a flesh-eating parasite just showed up in Texas cattle for the first time in 60 years.

Every week, we crown the DMS champion of BBQ. And there are only two ways to enter: 1) Submit a pic to the Dead Meat Society Facebook Group 2) Tag us on Instagram. If you aren’t sharing (and competing), what the hell are you waiting for?

And remember, the stakes have never been higher!

This week’s Smoke Show Champ is Curtis Peavy for a beautiful smoke. Shared via the Dead Meat Society Facebook Group.

Have a Smoke Show submission? Stop wasting your time posting on all those other sites and share it with the Facebook group that gives a damn: Dead Meat Society. Or just tag us on Instagram.

That one story that will make you infinitely more interesting than your know-it-all brother-in-law. Seriously, wtf is that guy’s deal?

We’ve been waiting for it all year… Father's Day is Sunday. And if you’re a true member of the Dead Meat Society, there really should be no question what’s on the menu Sunday...

Lucky for us, Meathead and the team at AmazingRibs.com put together a full Father's Day BBQ menu to bring some creativity to our plans. Here's what's on the table…

Pick one. Pick all of them. Either way, the family will be happy.

And if anyone in your life is still figuring out what to get you, Barbecuebible.com dropped their last-minute Father’s Day gift guide. Some highlights…

And might we suggest a gift you will actually use…

So, what are your plans for Father’s Day, Dead Meat Society? Let’s light up the grill and make some magic happen this weekend.

But whatever you do, make sure you send some love to the fathers all around us who make the world go round.

Last week, we asked: Are you buying any grill gear during Prime Day?

60% of you answered: “Watching a few deals closely”

This week, we want to know:

*Check back next week for the results*

Like the memes you send back and forth in your group chat, except these won’t get you canceled. Oh, and lots more grill marks.

🥩 RODNEY'S BACK: Lost his restaurants, then fired up a pop-up the same week. That's a pitmaster.

🥩 SCREWWORM IN TEXAS: A flesh-eating parasite called the New World screwworm showed up in Texas cattle for the first time since 1966. Its larvae burrow into living tissue and can kill the host. Did I mention beef prices are already at a 40-year high? The USDA is responding.

🥩 FANCY CAMPING: Classic pairing… the wine helps the failure go down easier 👇

🥩 CAJUN PARTY: Sticky, spicy, and impossible to eat just one 👇

Tips, tech & gear that’ll help you beat your friend’s meat. Wait, that came out wrong…

🥓 BUTTER YOUR BURGER: Butter baste your patties. Turns out you've been leaving flavor on the table this whole time.

🥓 WEBER SMART GRILL: Men's Journal named it best smart gas grill of 2026. WiFi probe, sear zone, 10-year warranty. Let’s go shopping.

🥓 LUMP CHARCOAL CATCH: Hotter. Cleaner. Gone faster. Lump charcoal has one downside, and it will bite you mid-brisket if you're not paying attention.

🥓 OOPS I DID IT AGAIN: Might be time to look into a waterproof thermometer 👇

🥓 JUICY SMOKE: Look no further for the perfect BBQ chicken recipe 👇

A happy ending just for you.

That’s it for this week. If you make any of the recipes above, you’re legally obligated to share pics on the DMS Facebook Group or tag us on Instagram so we can feature them next week (sorry, we don’t make the rules).

And since the only thing that is better than grill marks and ice-cold beer is grill marks and ice-cold beer with a side of dad jokes, we’ll leave this right here…

Keep it DMS style 💀 Thanks for the share @grumpyf*ckersbbq

It’s too late to get dad a badass grilling tool bundle in time for Father’s Day, but it’s never too late to get one for yourself (or tell dad he might have to wait a few days).
