Look at the crowd at Coopers BBQ in Llano Texas.
I have been going to this place all my life and my how the crowds have swelled into unbelievable proportions.

I used to be able to just walk right up and order.

Dang, you have a feast going over there!!!!


The BBQ scene is getting bigger every year so I'm not surprised. By the way, Arron Franklin has a new Steak book coming out and he sent out a teaser about his smoker building business. They're designed for home cooks but it's suppose to hold 3 briskets. No info on the price but I'm guessing it's gonna be over 1K.

I just ate a flaming hot skewer of shrimp.
Hot from red pepper.
Here it is.
The baby backs dont have anything on them but salt black pepper and olive oil.
They smoked dry for a good long time.
Shrimp and meatballs swimming in seasoned butter.

Most of your fruit wood has a delicate flavor as where mesquite can be bitter and over powering if used improperly.

The meat in the pictuer isn't raw.

I don't think I saved nearly enough wood. oops. I will just have to go sneak a few branches off the trees where I don't think he pruned hard enough.. I just started Sundays meat on the pseudo smoker...
