Baker launched the biz after a 2013 appearance on the show but says the business mogul pocketed most of his profits and tried to muscle him out of the company.
“We lost everything — and we are tired of being silenced, bullied and pushed out,” charges Baker, 66, founder of Bubba’s Q Boneless Baby Back Ribs.

But weeks after filming, John revised the deal, offering only $100,000 for a 35 percent stake! “I do not buy a company off just a pitch,” John said about the apparent bait and switch.
