Diva Q BBQ

Hire a World Champion Pitmaster

Culinary keynote speaker isn’t just a title to me; it’s a promise to bring fire, passion, and Hall of Fame expertise to your stage. Barbecue has a unique power to bring people together. It breaks down barriers and creates instant connections.

I am not the type of speaker who hides behind a podium reading from a script. I am a Barbecue Hall of Fame inductee, a television host, and a competitor who thrives under pressure. When you hire me, you get dynamic energy and real-world lessons on resilience.

Whether I am motivating a Fortune 500 team or feeding a community in crisis, I bring reliable expertise and World Champion intensity to every single engagement.

BBQ Events

Corporate BBQ Events Speaker & Motivation

I have spent twenty years breaking glass ceilings in a male-dominated industry. As a female pitmaster and a motivational culinary speaker, I share the hard-fought lessons of perseverance and excellence.

Beyond the Grill

My talks go deeper than just recipes. I discuss the discipline required to win over 400 awards and the grit needed to film a TV show across 185 countries. I teach your team how to find their own "perfect score" performance.

Interactive Team Building

Sit-down dinners are fine, but getting your team around a grill changes the dynamic instantly. I lead interactive culinary demos where your employees learn to work together, manage time, and produce a tangible result they can eat.

I have taught over 22,000 students worldwide. I know how to command a room, handle a crowd, and make sure everyone leaves with a new skill.

VIP & Confidential Events

I understand the need for discretion. I have cooked for prime ministers, presidents, and mega superstars. I am accustomed to signing NDAs and delivering flawless service for high-profile clients who require absolute privacy.

Corporate BBQ Events Speaker & Motivation

Charity BBQ Appearances & Community

Charity BBQ

Charity BBQ Appearances & Community

Life is too short for bad BBQ, but it is also too short not to help your neighbor. My philosophy is simple: feed people.

Operation BBQ Relief

When disaster strikes, a hot meal provides hope. I am a proud supporter of Operation BBQ Relief, an organization that deploys cooking teams to disaster zones. We provide comfort through food when communities need it most.

Supporting Local Heroes

I actively support Second Harvest in the fight against hunger, as well as the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and local Fire Departments. Being a pitmaster gives me a unique platform to give back. If you are organizing a fundraiser or a community drive, I bring the same level of dedication to charity work as I do to the World Championship stage.

VIP Event Pitmaster

VIP Event Pitmaster WITH GLOBAL REACH

My service area has no boundaries. I am a VIP event pitmaster who travels worldwide to serve clients.

International Experience

I have managed logistics and events in diverse locations, including Dubai, Norway, South Africa, Amsterdam, and throughout Europe. I know how to source quality ingredients in foreign markets and adapt to different culinary environments without missing a beat.

O-1 Visa Status

International travel for work can be complicated, but I have the credentials to make it smooth. I hold a US O-1 Visa specifically as a "Barbecue Expert". This government recognition facilitates my ability to work globally for major brands and events. From my home base in Central Florida to the BBQ hubs of Kansas City and beyond, I am ready to travel.

The "Real Deal"

I am not just a television personality. I am a Jack Daniels World Champion and a multiple Grand Champion. When I speak about excellence, I back it up with hardware.

Absolute Reliability

In the events industry, you need talent that shows up on time and delivers. I am known for being extremely reliable. You do not have to worry about the logistics when I am on your team.

Brand Power

My partnerships with top-tier brands like Traeger Grills and Certified Angus Beef add immediate prestige to your event. These are brands that stand for quality, and I bring that same standard to your stage.
