Worth Repeating...
"Celebrity Chef" Aaron Franklin was named Best Chef: Southwest by the James Beard Foundation in 2015. After countless hours spent working the pit, he has earned a reputation as one of the top celebrity chefs in the BBQ. It all began in 2009 when he and his wife Stacy opened up the first location of Franklin Barbecue, a food trailer located just off the interstate in Austin. In just 2 years, they would move to a real brick and mortar location and the restaurant earned a feature on Anthony Bourdain’s TV travel series No Reservations in 2012. Very soon Franklin BBQ garnered several mentions from reputable sources as the best BBQ in America.

In April of 2015, Franklin published his first cookbook titled Franklin Barbecue: A Meat Manifesto. The cookbook has been dubbed a definitive resource for the backyard pitmaster, providing readers with a top-to-bottom education on cooking meat and brisket. Aaron's new book "Smoke" is available everywhere, including Amazon.

BBQ's Julia Child - STEVEN RAICHLEN on BBQ RADIO NETWORK Jan 25, 2024

Show notes

Send us Fan Mail

It started in 1998, when Workman published Steven Raichlen’s groundbreaking THE BARBECUE! BIBLE, which fired a grilling revolution around the world, transforming the arts of smoking and grilling to the cult status it enjoys today. When this 500-recipe homage to global live-fire cooking was first published, American grilling was limited to simple summer weekend cookouts with little technique or creative thought. And now, it’s hard to believe that there was ever a time when grilling and barbecue weren’t as American as apple pie.

Bourbon and BBQ are well acquainted partners in crime and as we close out the year of 2023 we are trying something that we've had in our minds since the show started a few years ago - A BOURBON TASTE OFF.
