I have several books- including Aaron Franklin a Meat Smoking Manifesto-
For Central Texas BBQ it's my Bible
But for everything else about meat, heat, smoke, and grilling etc... I can't recommend Meathead's book highly enough.
I believe anyone who is serious about grilling and or, smoking meats should have this as a reference at all times.
My grilling game went up 50% the first cook after reading this book.
I understand why certain things have happened in a way I have never understood before.
I thought I was a pretty conscientious griller and cook, and the bottom line is I was doing a lot wrong.
For the first time I was able to take frozen chicken wings, water thaw them, use a simple marinade and grill them so they came out fully cooked but with a crispy bite AND tender and juicy on the inside.
I used the reverse sear technique-
There is science in this book that supports what he says, including explaining why certain myths aren't true.
This is the best grilling book I have ever read
