Um þessa rafbók

The New York Times–bestselling author & star of Destination America’s BBQ Pitmasters offers essential old-school barbecue techniques & fifty classic recipes.

In barbecue, “old-school” means cooking on a homemade coal-fired masonry pit, where the first step is burning wood to make your own coals, followed by shoveling those coals beneath the meat and smoking that meat until it acquires the distinct flavor only true pit-smoking can infuse. With easy-to-follow, straightforward instruction, America’s pitmaster shows you how and also demonstrates methods for cooking on traditional gas and charcoal grills common in most backyards. The book is divided into four parts—Meat Helpers, The Hog, Birds, The Cow—and features recipes and methods, including:

• Pit Smoked Pulled Pork
• North Carolina Yella Mustard-Based Barbecue Sauce
• Prize-winning Brisket
• Smoked Baby Back Ribs
• Thick and Smoky T-Bone Steaks

Presenting step-by-step illustrations on building a pit, managing a fire, selecting meats for the pit and the best wood to burn in it, and more, Mixon offers all of the fundamental lessons to becoming a champion backyard pitmaster.



Filled with Mixon’s southern charm, personal stories, and never-before-shared methods, BBQ Rules is a down-home, accessible return to old-school pit smoked barbecue.

“When I’m out of my car, I’m a big fan of smoking BBQ. With Myron’s help, my friends and family get to enjoy the world’s best BBQ and all the credit goes to the advice Myron shares with you right in this book.” —Dale Earnhardt Jr.
