Lessons from the Backyard: A Connected BBQ Grill and Smoker

At the 2019 AWS Chicago Summit, Mission CTO Jonathan LaCour presented a cutting edge video on the cloud — and his BBQ smoker. At a high-level overview, the video delves into:

• The science of smoking meat
• The internet of smoking things device called The Stoker, from Rock’s Bar-B-Que
• How Jonathan connected his BBQ grill and smoker to the cloud
• A deep-dive of the architecture, and how it relates to the architectures LaCour uses at Mission to help real customers solve real problems.

So sit down, relax, grab some BBQ and enjoy the presentation!
