Barbecue Rules: Lessons and Recipes for Superior Smoking and Grilling
This comprehensive barbecue cookbook from Joe Carroll, founder of Brooklyn's acclaimed Fette Sau, makes live-fire cooking accessible for home cooks. Adapted from Carroll's Feeding the Fire, this handy guide contains over 30 tested recipes and six informational essays that demystify the art of smoking and grilling.
What You'll Learn
Carroll breaks down the fundamentals of barbecue and grilling without requiring specialized equipment or regional expertise. The book covers essential techniques including how to create and maintain low and slow heat, proper meat selection, and which cuts to request from your butcher. Each lesson builds practical skills for achieving restaurant-quality results in your backyard.
Recipe Collection
The recipe selection ranges from traditional barbecue staples to innovative preparations. Classic recipes include Beef Brisket and Pulled Pork Shoulder, while more adventurous options feature Sweet Tea-Brined Poussins and Lamb Saddle Chops with Mint-Yogurt Sauce. Instructions for roasting pork loin and preparing complementary sides round out the collection, with emphasis on simple, flavorful accompaniments that don't overshadow the main dishes.
