I read about these in Mike Mill's book "Peace, Love, And Barbecue".

* Barbecue: A Texas Love Story (Available on Netflix)

Barbecue is a religion in Texas, and this droll documentary takes a look at some of the colorful characters who live and die for this culinary art. Narrated by former Gov. Ann Richards, the film covers everything from the Church of the Holy BBQ and the Great Texas Mosquito Festival to a zealous group of University of Texas students who lead "barbecue missions." Interviews with Dan Rather, Kinky Friedman and other famous Texans are included.

* Barbecue is a Noun

A documentary about barbecue in the Carolinas. Visit their website for video clips, but not available on DVD.

I saw one barbeque documentary on The History Channel a few weeks ago that was part of their American Eats series. They not only showed some of the history of barbeque but cooked up some recipes on various smokers as well. It was only an hour long, but I thought it was very good.
