Not everyone has a smoker, but most folks have a kettle-style grill of some sort. So in honor of Labor Day, here is a little something for you to try.

BBQ Sauce Recipe

I’m a real big fan of Pepsi Throwback and of colas in general, so the proposition was somewhat intriguing. I’ve have seen cola BBQ sauces around and was always interested [...]

I found this great mini-documentary that details the daily life Dr. BBQ. It’s the side of the story that never gets told and shows how dedicated the professionals are to this culture. It may not get you hungry but it will get you inspired. Now, go trim your meat, and start the heat.
