Willis Spells is a barbecue cook in Dorchester, SC. 

He learned the craft from his father who had people traveling from a far to get his barbecue.  While he does not cook barbecue for livelihood, he passed the tradition down to farmer Marvin Ross of Peculiar Pig Farm. Marvin Ross will likely be known more than Mr. Spells, but in terms of cooking barbecue, without Mr. Spells passing the knowledge Marvin may not been able to carry the tradition forward.
