CNBC continues their new reality series, West Texas Investors Club with an all-new episode. During tonight's premiere of episode 3, self-made multimillionaires Rooster McConaughey and Butch Gilliam are going to lasso in these entrepreneurs, and give them a Shark Tank feel with a little bit of Texas twang.

As we previously mentioned, during the eight-episode series, deep in the heart of Texas, the self-made multimillionaires Rooster McConaughey and Butch Gilliam have carved their fortunes from a harsh and unforgiving land. Now they've chosen to pass on their success by investing in promising entrepreneurs. But they're going to do it on their own turf and terms. Along with the duo's close friend and confidante Gil Prather, Rooster and Butch are inviting ambitious entrepreneurs from all across the country to come down to Midland and make their case.

In an interview with CNBC, Gilliam reveals what it takes to be the perfect partner, ""If these entrepreneurs were to come to us and say, 'You know what, it's the least thing on my mind about getting rich. I just want to see my idea work and I want to work hard to achieve that. And whatever comes, I'll reap the benefits later. And I'm patient and I'm willing to wait.' Haven't had one tell us that."

In tonight's episode, entitled The Quick and the Fed, North Carolina Pickle Company will make their appearance. Kernersville-based Miss Jenny's Pickles founders, Jenny Fulton and her business partner, Ashlee Furr, will try to get the word out about their company.

In an interview with TWC News, Jenny Fulton described meeting the self-made millionaires, "When I got there, I did my pitch. From there they say, 'You have some issues. Let's see what we can do to help you, but we want to get to know you first and want you to do some things for us.'"

West Texas Investors Club continues Tuesdays at 10pm on CNBC.
