Smokin' with Myron Mixon: Recipes Made Simple, from the Winningest Man in Barbecue Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)He keeps it simple and real. I love the way the book flows as a cookbook and a story. As soon as you get into it, there's no doubt this is Myron's cookbook. His language is what you'd expect and it's absolutely appreciated.
There are a good number of recipes and all of which are easy to follow. I can't wait to try the cupcake chicken!
The best part is how he explains the different recipes and techniques. You may not agree with some of what he says, but he does.. and it's made him ton's of money.
What you'll find:
Recipes for Rubs , Marinade, Injections, Glazes and Sauces. All or most recipes of his famous dishes (ribs,cupcakes chicken, brisket, etc.)
Cooking temps and techniques (tools,types of wood, etc)
Super easy to follow recipes and real simple ingredients.
Great stories about Myron and his dad.
Good information about the BBQ competition circuit.
Who it's for:
Beginners/Intermediate/Pros
Beginners: You will learn some of basics and find easy to follow, awesome recipes.
Intermediates: My category. It will make you feel good. It will bring you back down to earth and remind you to not over-think the BBQ process.
Pros: Good info on the BBQ competitions. And of course, Myron's award winning recipes.
I'll update this review as I try out the different recipes.
Update May 21, 2011
Last week I tried the pork shoulder recipe. It called for an 18lb whole shoulder (picnic + boston butt) I only had the butt (9lbs) I followed the recipe to the letter, except I had to alter a bit because of the smaller cut of meat. I essentially did a 3-2-1 method at 275. I used all the ingredients from the recipe and in the end a perfect boston butt. It was moist and flavorful. Just perfect.
My setup: (not in the recipe) WSM - 2 full chimney starter coals- apple and cherry chunks. water and apple juice in the water pan. google 3-2-1 method if you'd like more info (rib technique)
