He uncovers their tried-and-true techniques gleaned over hours, days, and years toiling by fire and spit, coaxing meltingly tender perfection from the humble pigùthe foundation of Southern BBQ. More than a book of recipes, Matt explores how the marriage of meat, cooking method, and sauce varies from place to place based on history and culture, climate, available ingredients and wood, and always the closely-guarded, passed-down secrets followed like scripture. Because no meat plate is complete in the South without ôall the fixinÆsö to round out the meal, Matt cues up patron-sanctioned recipes from every establishment he visits. One thing is for certainàthis book will change the way you cook, smoke, grill, and eat, but be warned: Your own butt may suffer in the process.
