The Science of Great Barbecue and Grilling

Meathead Goldwyn is the publisher of Amazing Ribs, a go-to site for recipes and advice about both barbecueing and grilling (they are different!), and a member of the Barbecue Hall of Fame. He judges not only barbecue competitions, but also wines! He has a very diverse career, and you should visit the first link on this page to read more about him.

My favorite tidbit is this: his nickname was originally a reference to the iconic television sitcom, Archie Bunker, but it is certainly apropos given his chosen profession.

The Ultimate Smoked Turkey

If you're looking for a little something different for your holiday turkey, still using traditional poultry flavors, this might just be your new recipe! It uses the Simon and Garfunkel rub we made just for this (and a lot of it!) -- parsley, sage, rosemary, thyme...and a bunch of other stuff. It just adds a little smoke flavor to the traditional roast bird, which I think is a welcome addition.
