Blazing Star BBQ: Air Force veteran Michael Starr shares how global travel, Asian flavors ignited epic BBQ success

We’re firing up the grill and talkin’ BBQ with Blazing Star BBQ, Founder and Air Force veteran Michael Starr.

We start with his Air Force days, where he was a satellite communications specialist aboard the National Airborne Operations Center, commonly known as “The Doomsday Plane.” These classified 747s are the nation’s mobile command center for the President, the Pentagon, and the Joint Chiefs. Capable of withstanding the effects of nuclear and electromagnetic attacks, it follows the President everywhere and ensures the government and military can continue even amidst catastrophic attacks against our nation.
