Barbecue is distinctively Southern. So how did two guys from Boston win hundreds of barbecue ribbons, 30 Kansas City Barbecue Society championships, and the biggest prize of them all, the Jack Daniels World Championship Invitational Barbecue? By remaking classic BBQ favorites with new, audacious, and occasionally outrageous, twists, techniques, and ingredients. Award-winning chefs Andy Husbands and Chris Hart reveal their competition-winning techniques and recipes, from the ribs that won the Jack Daniels World Championship, to 25-Step Championship Chicken that melts in your mouth, to $100 Meatloaf that will redefine your definition of the word. Wicked Good Barbecue ain't your daddy's barbecue. It's your guide to fun, fearless, and fantastic cooking.
