Barbeque is a Great American Family pastime. Dating back to the colonial era, BBQ started as a Southern heritage that has stood the test of time. Today, BBQ is a favorite American tradition mixing mouthwatering food and family-friendly gatherings.
At Buddy Boy Fine Barbeque, we love the idea of fresh BBQ. We call it “farm to fire.” You know you are getting the freshest cuts of meats, whether chicken, pork or beef. From the rub to the spices to the fire, we use only the finest ingredients to satisfy our hungry customers. Owner and Chef Joe Cox has worked for years crafting the fine art of BBQ done right.
3 Elements of BBQ
There are usually three ingredients to barbeque, and wood smoke is the essential factor. The use of a sauce or seasoning varies widely based on tastes – some like their meat slathered in sauce, while some prefer a drier rub.
The first ingredient in the barbeque tradition is meat. The number one meat used in American barbeque is pork, particularly pork ribs.
The second ingredient in barbeque is the wood used to smoke the meat. Since the wood smoke flavors the food, the type of wood used impacts the flavor outcome. Hardwoods, such as hickory, mesquite, and various varieties of oak, impart a strong smoke flavor. To add a milder, sweeter taste, choose maple, alder, pecan or fruit woods like apple, pear and cherry.
BBQ sauce is usually the final ingredient to be added, and it seals the meats with tangy goodness.
