Matthew Hussey - The Hungry Hussey

The Pitmaster's Podcast

Matthew Hussey from Trinity, NC. I’m a full-time electrical equipment sales engineer, but when the workday ends, I dive headfirst into my real passion—cooking! I’m the guy behind "The Hungry Hussey" on YouTube, where I’ve been sharing my love for backyard grilling, smoking, and cooking since 2012. It all started in 2012 when I got my first Big Green Egg. That was the moment I became a certified “Egghead,” and I’ve been hooked ever since. I used to post my cooks on Instagram, but things kicked into high gear after a marketing firm reached out and suggested I check out Todd Toven on YouTube. I figured, “Hey, I can do that too,” and that’s how The Hungry Hussey was born on YouTube. Now, I’m all about showing regular folks how to make “Some Good Groceries” on everything from a 36" Pro Series Blackstone to a Lone Star Grillz offset smoker. If it can cook, griddle, or smoke food, I’m all in! My sidekick Maggie, our dog, is usually around making sure everything’s up to her standards too. When I’m not cooking, you can find me hanging out with my amazing wife Makenzie, our two kids Maryn and Mason, and our two dogs, Maggie and Molly. Life’s busy, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Looking forward to chatting and sharing some laughs, tips, and maybe even a few kitchen fails—because hey, they happen to the best of us!
