Bo Knows BBQ Pit Master Bo Gardner from West Texas
The intention of Unlocking the Secrets of Texas BBQ and a Whole Lot More is to pass on to you or someone you know, the dying art of producing Texas BBQ and Grilling, by BBQ Pit Master Bo Gardner. What I propose to teach you, in these 2 e book volumes, is the 'feeling, the love, and yes, the passion of Texas BBQ, so that you too can proudly claim the reserved title of 'BBQ Pit Master'. Texas BBQ is an art form. It requires patience, understanding, and time to master, but the rewards are well worth it. Whether you are a weekend enthusiast or a pro you will step up your cooking skills to the next level and impress your family and friends. From pit, to grill, to fire, to table, tips, tools, techniques, recipes, showmanship, ways to save money, and more. We will cover brisket, pork, sausage, steaks, fruits, vegetables, cheese, nuts..... TEXAS….. It's like a whole 'nuther country! Barbecue is serious business in Texas, and it is an integral part of our state identity. Along with cattle ranches, wildflowers, the oil bidness, wide-open spaces, and our big western hats, barbecue is one of the emblems that we are mighty proud to wear. In Texas, we cook BBQ in a CLOSED PIT fueled by WOOD. Notice! I did NOT use the word OPEN PIT, GRILL, GAS, or ELECTRICITY. Now some of the best bbq I ever had was cooked on an open pit, but in Texas, we use closed pits. Let's get this straight right now,….GRILLING is NOT barbecuing! Many people think good barbecue is from the sauce you put on the meat - wrong! Real barbecue is meat that is cooked with indirect heat and smoke (USDA Definition). Not boiled in water or cooked on your normal backyard grill that uses direct heat.
Although grills can't be beat for cooking steaks, seafood, vegetables, and or fruits. A grill heated by gas or electricity is fine for grilling, but not for Texas bbq.
Notice also in the first sentence, I said we COOK BBQ. In Texas we EAT BBQ! BBQ in Texas is a NOUN. It is a real thing you can put your hands on and in your mouth.
You can see, you can feel, you can taste, you can smell, hear, and yes sometimes even wear BBQ. We cook BBQ in the pit, we do not barbecue in the pit. Clear as bbq sauce huh?
A closed pit and an open pit usually have a cooking temperature of 170? degrees to 250? degrees. A grill can be used open or closed and has a cooking temperature from 250? degrees to 1200? degrees.
A smoker is a closed cooker with a low temperature usually kept between 70? degrees to 170?degrees.
Purists insist that the temperature in the pit not exceed the boiling point of water. If you do not exceed the boiling point, then the natural, flavorful juices will remain in the meat keeping it moist and tender. This is a slow method of cooking. Eight, ten, or even twenty-four hours on the pit, slow cooking is very common... Barbecue is never cooked rare. It is always well done to the center.
Sometimes barbecuing at a higher temperature is acceptable. You just have to be sure you are not burning the outside of the meat unless you are TRYING to get those tasty 'burnt ends'. Meat of any sort gets really tough when overcooked. Are you totally confused yet? I will sort all of this out later.
Noah Webster's dictionary insists that the one and only correct spelling is barbecue. But, as another US president, Andrew Jackson, noted, "It's a damned poor mind that can think of only one way to spell a word ." He would be mighty pleased to know that over the years folks have been enjoying Barbicue, Barbique, Barbeque, Barbecue, Barbacue, Barbaque, Barbicu', Bar-B-Que, Bar-B-Cue, Bar-Be-Que, Bar-B-Q, BBQ, Cue, and just plain Q. Doesn't it just make you wonder how Dan Quail would spell it?
If you had one word to describe Texas, that might just be BBQ. For something that is taken so serious here in Texas, nobody really worries about how you spell it.
Most Texans though will agree that Texas BBQ is a big, juicy brisket cooked slooowly in a smoker over wood coals, has a nice smoke ring, and is tender as my heart. Just add some beef back ribs, sausage, beans, and potato salad, maybe some Cole Slaw, pickles and onions, and do not forget the peach cobbler, a few close friends, good cold drinks, and you will have real Texas BBQ!
However, although most Texans can agree on what Texas BBQ is, we do not necessarily agree on how to prepare it, much less spell it.
In Texas, some of the BBQ is so good, it is served as the appetizer, the main course, and the dessert, all in one bite.
From dry rubs to wet mops, from woods to sauces, many Texans have their own recipes that make their BBQ the best, only they are kept a secrete!
How many times have you asked yourself after visiting your favorite bbq joint the following: "How come MY bbq doesn't taste like that?"
You have collected every bbq book and recipe you can get your 'sticky with bbq sauce' hands on, but it just does not taste the same. You have even asked the pit master what he does to create bbq like that. He may be your best friend, but he somehow 'forgets' to tell you about that secret ingredient or special technique he uses. Seems to be a common problem with all chefs!
We will now unlock these secrets……
