About
Contrary to popular belief, the soul of barbecue isnt in the south. It isnt in any one place. Its in the fire. Its the flames that fuel the smoker, tenderizing and roasting until just the right temperature. Its the fire that lives in the heart of the chef who meticulously hand-selects seasonal ingredients and pairs them in a way thats unexpected perfection. Its the fire that lights the path to faraway lands where spices are brought in by boat and chosen by aroma. Its the flame that lit the kitchens of our grandmothers and great-grandmothers who hand-wrote recipes and tucked them away for future generations. Its the fire burning out back for hours upon hours while food is cooked to temperature, with no regard for time or to do lists. Yes, the soul of barbecue isnt in any one place. Its in the fire.
