I gave this book ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆ 4 stars, I liked it a lot.
Aaron Franklin and his wife Stacy started out in the barbecue business in a small trailer on the side of the highway in Austin Texas in 2009. Franklin Barbecue took off from there. Today Franklin Barbecue is one of the most popular bbq places in the country and Aaron Franklin has won every bbq award that exists.
Jordan Mackay is the wine and spirits editor of 7×7 magazine and the author of Passion for Pinot. He is a regular contributor to the New York Times and has written for Food & Wine, Gourmet, Decanter, and Wine and Spirits.
Franklin Barbecue is not a recipe book. If you want recipes this book is not really going to do much for you. If you are looking for information on how to properly smoke your own meat and make it mouth-wateringly delicious, this book will help you.
This book will give you an in depth and detailed look into bbq. Franklin Barbecue covers every aspect of making your own amazing bbq; from building or modifying a smoker, to choosing the best wood and meats and seasoning them correctly.
I started off reading this book with mild curiosity but by the end I wanted to run out and build my own smoker. I love good smoky bbq. It is the one thing I miss from my days living in the south and it is the one thing that is hard to find in Colorado. This book makes me want to try my hand at making my own southern style bbq.
I received this book free from Blogging for Books in exchange for an honest review.
