Killer recipes
The focus of this site is pork ribs. But what about the slaw? And the potatoes? And the drinks? And, let's face it, occasionally we like to eat beef and seafood and other meats. So I have expanded the mission of this site to include my favorite recipes. I worked hard to perfect them. I think you'll like you like 'em.
Rather than saving them for the book I am working on, I am publishing them here with three requests:
1) If you improve upon them or have suggestions, pass them back to me.
2) If you pass them on to friends, ask them to provide me feedback.
3) If you like them, please sign up for Smoke Signals, my free email newsletter, so I can let you know when I publish new recipes and when my book comes out.
