Grilling and smoking season is definitely here, and Mark Masker, editor of our brother site, the Burn Blog, has produced a great interview and review of this new barbecue book. He writes: “You may know champion ‘que man Christopher Prieto from seeing him on Barbecue Pitmasters. Earlier this year, he was the guiding force behind the tome, Southern Living Ultimate Book of BBQ. It’s not just a collection of recipes, though. Chris spent a lot of time pouring the lessons he’s learned at the pit into the book, sharing information that in some cases runs counter to conventional wisdom, but in a good way. Here’s what he had to tell me when I pinned him down for an interview.” Read the interview/review here.
