What BBQ means to me.

I have wanted to write this for quite some time. I have been asked why I like BBQ so much by many people. This question got me to thinking of all the things that I do love about Q. My first memories of BBQ are when my dad used to grill with his brother over in Clovis, NM. We would visit my uncles almost every weekend. My dad and Mario would start the grill and pop a top on a cold beer. Me my brother and all my cousins would run around playing. I remember the smell of the meat. Once it was done we would all eat and then go play again. The parents would all sit around and talk about whatever it is they talked about. Those were great times and great memories.

Now many years later I find myself carrying on the tradition. I get together with my family and friends and we grill and have fun while the kids play. So what does BBQ mean to me? BBQ means a gathering of family and friends to consume grilled and smoked meat while enjoying each others company, creating memories that are unforgettable. I Love my family and friends and I Love "Q"! 

Who the hell is this guy?

Brisket doesn't suck. Josh Ozersky does!!!

Here is a crazy article on Texas Monthly regarding this dumbass talking trash on Brisket. I read the article over and over and am surprised at this crap. Anyways I hope that someone takes him up on his Brisket challenge. Hell I hope someone just punches him in the face lol.  Ok ok now violence is never the answer... Ok well sometimes it is but anyways I think this guy deserves a good old fashioned assbeating but not with fists with BBQ. Feel free to check out this article and leave a comment with how you feel about it.

The Pitmaster Oath!!!

The Pitmaster Oath.

500 briskets, that's the number I figured when I was a kid. 500 briskets and you could consider yourself a legitimate pitmaster. You need them for experience. To develop leather skin. So I got started. Of course along the way you stop thinking about being tough and all that. It stops being the point. You get past the silliness of it all. But then, after, you realize that's what you are.

Best or Worst Brisket video ever?

I saw this video on Youtube and was just amazed. Tom the Pitmaster for Wholy Smoked LLC has an instructional video on how to cut brisket. I thought it might be a good video to watch so I sat through the whole video then watched him just massacre the brisket.

Why season your brisket with a good rub just to cut the bark off? Some people might watch this video and think it is great but I for one do not. So feel free to watch the video then leave a comment and let me know what you think.
