Barbecue America, the companion to the thirteen-part PBS series of the same name, is a gastronomic odyssey through the contests, restaurants, cities, and towns that have become America's barbecue shrines. From the most outlandish barbecue competitions-like the Greater Columbus Pig Jog Barbecue Cookoff in Columbus, Georgia-to the smokiest back-alley pit grills in the country, this is the complete guide to the character-filled world of barbecue. Including more than a hundred recipes for the finest barbecue dishes ever concocted, Barbecue America celebrates the diversity of the nation's various barbecue styles, and along the way introduces some of the quirky personalities, like the guy who quit his country club so he could afford a barbecue smoker costing upward of fifteen thousand dollars. Experience the pageantry and the homespun humor of the legions of barbecuers and shrines that make up the varied-and flavorful-world of smoking and grilling food, truly the jazz of world cuisine.
