KANSAS CITY, Mo. — This time on Chew Diligence — the Jones sisters of Jones Bar-B-Q!

In a hilarious and heartwarming interview, Mary "Shorty" and Deborah "Little" Jones share about life after Queer Eye.

Mary said the Fab 5 were "five of the finest men, not for what they did, let's first clear that up, but as for who they are," and the show was a blessing — one that they intend to pass on.

"God blesses us, so you keep the blessings going. Because there's always somebody that's just a little bit less fortunate than you, you know?" Mary said.

As for being one of the only female pitmasters in Kansas City, Deborah said its no easy task.

"It's a real job. It's a real job, now. It'll make or break you, now. Especially when that heat flares up and you get a hundred-degree temperature out there, and then that pit's probably a hundred. It's not something you can just right into and say 'Oh this is nothing.' No, no, it takes a minute," Deborah said.
