Homemade BBQ Sauce Recipes are Just the Beginning
My name is Phil and I have long been a lover of good barbecue.
After all, I grew up in the South and I have sampled BBQ recipes from all over the country – from North Carolina barbecue to Arizona’s mesquite grilled BBQ.
Now, you might think that the key to the perfect barbecue recipe is your BBQ sauce, but homemade sauce isn’t everything. I have had good sauce on terrible BBQ and good barbecue with a mediocre BBQ sauce.
It’s true that a delicious homemade barbecue sauce will keep them coming back, but there is more to learn if you want your BBQ ribs to be the ones that everyone wants to get messy with.
I am providing a BBQ Sauce Recipe, a BBQ Ribs Recipe and a BBQ Chicken Recipe below, because I know everyone has to start somewhere.
But, if you have ever wanted to move beyond the basics, order one of the outstanding books in the links below.
The BBQ recipes, BBQ tips and secrets in them will move your BBQ game from wannabe status to pro virtually overnight.
Next September, you will find yourself looking back on buying these books as the smartest move you could have made right now.
This is your season to impress them all. Make the most of it!
