Max Good, Vice President of Product Reviews & Keeper of the Flame

Max Good.

Max Good is the man in charge of finding the best products for the AmazingRibs.com Equipment Reviews section. He is the only man in the world who tests grills and smokers for a living and has cooked on more than anyone in history. Max loves barbecue so much that he took his barbecue sauce recipes, had them bottled, and sold Black Swan Premium, All-Natural Sauces around the world.

Barbecue was not his first career. He earned a BA from Columbia College in Chicago and studied at the Cleveland Institute of Art and the Dana School of Music. He has been involved in every aspect of film, video and music production. He edited the 1991 Academy Award nominated documentary, “The Mark of the Maker” and “Universal Hotel”, which is part of a permanent exhibit at the Dachau Memorial Museum.
