NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A complete meat and brisket-cooking
education from the country's most celebrated pitmaster and owner of the
wildly popular Austin restaurant Franklin Barbecue.
When Aaron Franklin and his wife, Stacy, opened up a small barbecue
trailer on the side of an Austin, Texas, interstate in 2009, they had no
idea what they'd gotten themselves into. Today, Franklin Barbecue has
grown into the most popular, critically lauded, and obsessed-over
barbecue joint in the country (if not the world)--and Franklin is the
winner of every major barbecue award there is.
In this much-anticipated debut, Franklin and coauthor Jordan Mackay
unlock the secrets behind truly great barbecue, and share years' worth
of hard-won knowledge. Franklin Barbecue is a definitive resource for
the backyard pitmaster, with chapters dedicated to building or
customizing your own smoker; finding and curing the right wood; creating
and tending perfect fires; sourcing top-quality meat; and of course,
cooking mind-blowing, ridiculously delicious barbecue, better than you
ever thought possible.
