New must-read book


I was given a wonderful book for my birthday from my co-workers. Just published on Chapel Hill press: Holy Smoke- the Big Book of NC BBQ.



This book is fantastic. Really takes an academic view of the history of BBQ in NC, which features many places and restaurants near us and ones I have visited. Most interesting is them tracing sightings of Native Americans smoking fish on beaches in the 1600s and 1700s.

Ed- let me know if you can't get access to it and i'll ship you one.

The best part of the book is it tells you how to do a whole hog with cinder-blocks. I'm trying it this spring.

    Hey Joe-be-wan!

    How're tricks? I've just had a quick look and this is available on amazon and ebay over here. though it was Mrs Flamb that drew my attention to it, it seems I'm not getting the blog emails any more, and I'm not sure why.....

    Hi Joe-be-wan,

    How is the family? I like the look of this book. As Flamb_Ed says it is available here for about£14, that is around $21. I have put it on my wishlist.
