I'm late to the game, but I'm ready for some barbecue talk. Sounds to me like Barbecue Jesus been to the Garden District of New Orleans, with his restaurant Uptown Sports bar. Aaron Franklin knows good food. That was a lot of barbecue knowledge that came from the barbecue heaven, but I wish a rack of ribs, pulled pork, burnt ends, brisket, and all the sides would come down on my kitchen table right now. Please don't forget the potato salad!!!

Some thoughts: When you are baking it can be disastrous when you break the rules. However, most of the time some of the best of everything is when someone broke the rules/thought outside of the box and went for it. You are currently trying to follow the rules, but eventually you will feel comfortable trying it your way.

A visitor from Kent Rollins. Your channel is interesting and entertaining. Franklin's smoked brisket is awesome. But if you want good BBQ, its smoked pork, from the Southeast. You can restart the Civil War making comments about North Carolina BBQ. Tidewater, Central, Mountain very different but its all GOOD. Memphis dry rub ribs are to die for. Travel around the USA. BBQ is regional and many places do an excellent job.

@dougrose7334 7 күн бұрын

Agreed. Texan that has tried bbq all over the south. Texas and KC does brisket the best hands down...but when it comes to pork, we can't hold a candle to the southeast. Not a fan of the vinegar sauce....hate it in fact....but damn those ribs are good. Especially the sticky sweet ones I tried.

I honestly believe there’s something or some ingredient he uses on his brisket which he doesn’t disclose on any of his cooking videos. His brisket is miles better than any I have ever tasted. I’ve been to all the major BBQ joints in Texas and while there’s other places with better meats, Franklins brisket is unsurpassed.

I remember watching a pbs special once, years ago. In that show he introduced the lady in the kitchen. She had huge kettles on the stove. In each one she was boiling onions. The onion water was mixed with vinegar in spray bottles to spray the briskets. No idea if this is still done or not, but I do remember it. I have never seen it on any of his videos or shows since.
