    BBQ

    This is what real BBQ looks like, if you were wondering.

    A real BBQ plate would have ribs and or pulled pork on it, plus the brisket and sausage

    Yeah. I guess you’re right. We tried a little of everything there and it was really really good. I might have had prettier bbq pics from my road trip but LC’s was the best. Maybe Pearce’s pit in VA was better but I was there like three years ago and will not be scrolling that far back on my phone.

    No wood used now for Carolina hog or shoulder? That’s an abomination before God.

    Good call on the zucchini, although I do like zucchini, its not an old school BBQ side.

    Now here’s a man that knows a thing or three about BBQ. I’m tempted to sign up. Although it is much easier to buy than make.

    I know, I know, but, fires are so common, like, burn everything down fires, that nobody will insure an old school wood burner. And, labor is cheaper, too.

    I bought a whole BBQ duck yesterday from a Laotian immigrant, it was damn tasty.

    The new dog is now debating which is better swine or flying bacon.

    it's the economics of a $4 sandwich that are killing traditional bbq places, as mentioned in the article.

    I'm skeptical that legitimate BBQ can come from a place that doesn't serve the meat naked. Pre-sauced BBQ is amateur hour level.

    Brisket gets top billing in Texas, but there’s pigs here too! Kreuz and Smittys are about as old school as they come, and both serve pork.

    I don't get this. Wood fired pizza and cooking is all the rage these days, a new wood-fired pizza place opens every couple of weeks around here. Why would they not have trouble getting insurance, but BBQ joints with a wood fired pit would? Doesn't seem like one should be more dangerous than the other.

    Whole pigs are bigger than a pizza, and take much longer to cook.

    I’ll have to try that Subway sandwich to see if it is semi-legit. After all, I actually like the McRib (but that’s not BBQ either).

    First I need to try the chicken sandwich at Popeyes, though.

    Had one day in Lockhart while visiting friends in Austin. Was like a pilgrimage. Had to have two lunches so I could get both of these in.

    Pig Iron in SODO is respectable though.

    Not entirely. Most places that do wood fired pizza/cooking are using an oven that is actually a gas burner, to which small quantities of wood can be added for flavor/aroma. With some notable exceptions like very large wood fired pizza ovens, these devices run clean (high temps, small fuel loads) and are shut down at the end of each night.

    Smokers at a BBQ joint smolder and burn dirty, which increases accumulation of volatile materials in the exhaust path, in addition to grease accumulation and while they might be remotely controlled these days, they are still run for extended periods of time unattended.

    They're clearly in different categories in terms of the fire risk they pose.

    Well, not really. Even though I'm a NY City boy, I've actually read a bit about BBQ. I find it a fascinating subject, one of the last great democratic cuisines in America. This book https://michaelpollan.com/books/cooked/ taught me two things, that BBQ is originally an island slave food, and, yeah, BBQ joints, if the pit is inside, burn down frequently. I mean, c'mon, you're sort of asking for it, with a big wood fire going almost 24/7. So that's why most cooking, even in very serious BBQ places, is done outside.
