In North Carolina the sauce is loaded with vinegar, and hickory smoke is
essential. South Carolinians swear by mustard, while Texans insist on
tomato sauce and Worcestershire. Author and cook Jane Butel has traveled
all across the country to pick up on the passions for America's favorite
summertime food: barbecued hamburgers, chicken, ham, duck, ribs, ribs,
and more ribs. Featuring some of the best recipes from acclaimed
barbecue chefs as well as information on dozens of barbecue pitstops
around the country, Jane Butel's Finger Lickin', Rib Stickin', Great
Tastin', Hot and Spicy Barbecue is the book no grillmaster should do
without.
