May be off topic but seeing as you're here... so I just got into smoking last summer and what got me really interested in it was watching Aaron Franklin on the Chef show. I bought some of his books to kind of introduce myself to the art / science but I'm curious where would you point people who are novices at BBQ and looking to build their skills?
- linsomniac 5y agoI watched this video before I knew who Aaron Franklin was, about trimming brisket. "Make it aerodynamic, anything that sticks out is just going to burn." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yaMgt1Altys https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yaMgt1Altys
- tru3_power 5y agoCheck out Malcom Reed’s how to bbq right on YouTube. It’s solid.

- dlgeek 5y agoamazingribs.com, hands down one of the best sources online.
- ryanmarsh 5y agoI’m no pit master but I’ve put in the hours and tried every brisket technique I can find, including smoker mods. Amazingribs is one of the worst sites for learning brisket cooks. It fools you with pseudo-science and big talking. If you want a reliable simple method that will never fail you then go with Aaron Franklin’s system. Case in point, amazingribs recommends injecting broth. If you want to get fancier then go ahead, but most folks won’t know the difference.
- lamename 5y agoThe website mentioned in the article https://amazingribs.com/ https://amazingribs.com/ is excellent. And it will help you skip a lot of the BS/myths that people are exposed to when starting out, because Blonder and Meathead (the main host of the site) do a number of pretty well-controlled experiments to mythbust or test methods as systematically as they can.
