Alan Gayton: Technology Director, Sci-Fi Enthusiast, and Barbecue Competitor. This is episode 628 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast.
Alan Gayton is a 51-year-old IT geek who has been playing with computers since he was a kid stealing software on a Commodore 64. He started his career as the first Technology Specialist for Gordon County Schools, where he had the dubious honor of fixing the computers and switches that always broke down. He then became an Instructional Technology Specialist, where he had to deal with endless questions such as “What does ‘click here’ mean?” He is now the Director of Technology for the North Georgia RESA, where he has the daunting task of managing the technology needs and issues of the RESA and its 5-member school districts.
When he is not glued to his screen or phone, Alan likes to pretend that he is a pitmaster and a martial arts expert. He competes in competition BBQ as one half of team Q-Inator!, which is a clever name that he came up with after watching too much Phineas and Ferb. He and his partner have won some trophies and ribbons in various categories, but they are still far from being the best of the best. Alan also practices karate, which he learned from watching Karate Kid and Cobra Kai. He has a black belt, which he bought online (or maybe earned at UKS Karate), and he likes to show off his moves to anyone who will watch.
Alan is always willing to help or teach someone something new, as long as they don’t ask too many questions or challenge his authority. He is a proud father of two children who are smarter and more talented than him, and a loyal husband to his wife who puts up with his antics. He lives in Calhoun, Georgia, where he enjoys the fresh air and the peaceful surroundings.
Alan's Brunswick Stew Recipe
MEAT:
½ lb smoked pork
½ lb smoked beef
½ lb smoked chicken
OR
1 can Castleberry BBQ Pork
1 can Castleberry BBQ Beef
! lrg can Chunk Chicken
2 cans cream corn
2 cans petite diced tomatoes
1 bottle Chili sauce
¼ cup favorite bbq sauce (more or less to taste)
Hot sauce to taste
Salt and pepper to taste
Mix all in crock pot and cook on high for around 4 hours or on low for around 8.
A few notes:
- Meat
- To get it to turn out more like mine, you will need to use smoked meat and run it through a grinder with a large-holed plate. It will still be great if you don’t, but it does give it that more authentic texture
- Home smoked meat is best, but you can also get it from a local bbq restaurant
- If you decide to use canned, it is getting hard to find the Castleberry’s products in stores (particularly the beef) but you can probably use other brands or shop online.
- Feel free to add other veggies to make it how you like.
Awesome conversation!
Had so much fun!
Enjoy it!

Dennis A. Feece may not sound like your typical novelist who crafted a murder mystery, but he calls upon a variety of experiences, hobbies, and schooling to create the realism in his newest book, Love, Pride, & Murder.
The former motorcycle rider and sports car driver has lived a life of exploration, marrying, divorcing and chasing after understanding.
For three decades, he engaged in a career of book manufacturing, serving from frontline supervisor to vice president of operations. He worked for several companies, including Bertelsmann, Maple-Vail Book Manufacturing, and RR Donnelley.
He then became a pastoral associate at a local church and served a decade as the religious education teacher, social concerns, administrative, confirmation coordinator, adult education facilitator, and RCIA coordinator.
Feece earned a B.S. majoring in Psychology and minoring in Religious Studies from College Misericordia in PA. He also spent four years in Deaconate Formation at St. Pius X, in PA. He earned an MA in Theology from University of Scranton in PA.
Born and raised in Plymouth, Indiana, he has also lived in CT and NH. He resides in Montrose, PA and enjoys weightlifting, writing, and exploring his spiritual curiosity.
A little about Love, Pride, & Murder…

Cool story!
