Barbeque And Smoke Cookery

Filled with esoterica, historical tidbits, and practical cooking tips.

Smokestack Lightning

It was while eating a big ol’ plate of steaming ribs that journalist Lolis Eric Elie and photographer Frank Stewart decided to traverse the country to investigate America’s obsession with smoked meat. Their quest took them from all-night barbecue binges on Chicago’s south side to barbecue competition circuit events like Memphis in May and Big Pig Jig in Vienna, Georgia, where people drop thousands of dollars to spend a sleepless night smoking meat. In Smokestack Lightning, Elie and Stewart profile the down-home devotees of the barbecue world, painting an anthropological portrait of one of our nation’s favorite pastimes. Featuring 50 mouthwatering recipes for such meats, sauces, and side dishes as Oklahoma Joe’s Brew-B-Q Ribs, Moonlight Mutton Dip, and Lady Causey’s Overnight Cabbage Slaw, Smokestack Lightning is a unique culinary chronicle that’ll make your stomach rumble. This new edition of what many consider to be the anthropological bible on the history and soul of barbecue features a new introduction, over 50 recipes, and 80 black-and-white photographs. “If you can afford only one barbecue guide book this season, pick this one up.” —Paul Jennings, Texas Observer “Lolis Elie and Frank Stewart introduce us to the people and places that have immortalized Southern barbecue. This wonderful book evokes the familiar smell of hickory smoke and the mouthwatering taste every southerner has known and loved since childhood.” —William Ferris, director of the Center for Study of Southern Culture at the University of Mississippi
