Forgot the example video.

Depends on which kinda American BBQ you're talking about.

>>11424791
American BBQ is the best BBQ on Earth, so long as you've never left the US. Really their over dependence on sweet, sticky sauces or vinegary dry rubs dampens the whole experience. Countries that make better BBQ in no particular order:

>Argentina
>Brazil
>Cuba (for pork)
>Cantonese (for duck and pork)

I would rate American BBQ same as Korean. Very good but they do not let the meat speak for itself. I've traveled all throughout Texas, the South and a few parts of the Midwest. The best American BBQ is in Texas. They tend to put sauces on the side. And their meat stands on it's ow which I like. They are probably top 3 worldwide in BBQ. Worst BBQ state was Tennessee. Not that they are the worst in the US (probably Alaska or something)

>>11424791
Of course it's worth it you silly nigger

>>11424791
it's pretty damn good. also you don't have to add a bunch of sugary shit to ribs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jlx32wWA68U

it's just that pork + sweet sauce works pretty damn well. brisket typically isn't sweet much if at all.

American BBQ generally pairs sweet sauces with pork. but it's not that way for beef.

>>11424856
Argentina and brazil are straight garbage. They char the fuck out of everything

>>11424791
It really depends on who's making it. Barbecue isn't a flavor or an ingredient, it's a whole method of preparing food. Most barbecue you'll eat is generally an insult to the craft, but there does exist 10/10 barbecue within the US, and it's not too hard to find.

>>11424880
I don't get it why so much shit goes in to that meat? He seasons it multiple times during cooking and then glazes it like gazillion time with some utterly sweet shit???

>>11424791
I'm not a fan of ribs, brisket burnt ends, smoked chicken and smoked pork are where it's at. bonus if the bbq beans are put under the brisket to catch the drippins

>>11424904
well, for one Malcolm Reed comes from a competition background. judges will take one bite of your food and that's it. so you want it absolutely packed with flavor any way you can.

also just look at him lol

also I've made some of his shit and it's delicious.

>>11424890
t. never been to argentina

i'd say about 80% of the webm recipe meme facebook videos that get posted here add sugar to the recipe,no matter what kind of food it is. This gives me and probably many others on this board the perception that american food is overly sugary. is this just a meme facebook video thing? how often do you guys actually cook with sugar in non-deserts?

>is American BBQ good?
No, it doesn't even taste like meat, it's smoky and sweet flavored mush. Although every American will tell you they you've never tasted good American BBQ if you question them

>>11424966
>i'd say about 80% of the webm recipe meme facebook videos that get posted here add sugar to the recipe,no matter what kind of food it is.
really? I guess my perception doesn't really align with yours. IMO cheese is added to 80% of dishes, whether it complements the food or not. after looking through a webm thread I would think Americans use way too much cheese

>>11424982
>""""Cheese""""

is Jewish BBQ low-key the best?

>>11424988
yeah, def garbo processed "cheese" a lot of the time, agree w you there.

>>11424791
You're gonna trigger a lot of honest hard working bbq fanatics with that post. And they're right to be triggered.
>>11424917
>>11424966
These. Check out the homey right here if you wanna see some legit bbq. Not meme competition shit. Imo competition scene is the worst thing for food cultures its true in bbq its true in wine its true in cheese etc go down the list and competition leads to homogenized meme trends that really isn't edible in a dining setting where you're eating a whole meal over time and paired with many things.

What sort of shit Korean bbq have you eaten?

>>11424990
yes

now delete this

>>11424791
Absolutely.

Jesus the amount of sugar in this one. Is he making a dessert or what the fuck?

>>11425072
Is it normal to feel a little aroused by this video?

>>11424940
They raise great cattle and other livestock. They still suck ass at cooking them m8

>>11425088
that video hurt my arteries

smoked beef ribs yesterday, they were amazing

>>11424791
yes

>>11424791
>. I didn't know that you use that much sugar in bbq.
when i bbq anything i used at most a table spoon or two of brown sugar in a rub and that's it.

Sugar + Meat = Bad
I don't know why that even works for Americans. It's disgusting

>>11425038
ugh they dominate every aspect of society in the sneakiest ways. goddamnit.

>>11425088
I made these before. wasn't that great simply because of the amount of fat in pork belly is too much when it's in cubes like this. pork belly is much better for bacon, when it can be a small/thin strip that's cooked down. chewing through huge chunks of fat is kinda gross.

>>11425113

>>11425307
alot of the time it looks like americans use way too much but pork, brownsugar + smoke is great

>>11425307
pork works well with sweet stuff. that's why you'll sometimes see desserts with bacon or whatever - yes it's memey, but at the same time they couldn't pull it off with beef or chicken.

>>11424880
Those burnt ends lol it's almost parody

>>11424802
God I love/hate this fat fuck

>>11424836
>18 minutes of flour

>>11424836
OK Anon how did you get inside Jack's house and steal his recipe book?
Please send it back, not being able to cook his favorites has made him very sad recently

>>11424900
This of course. There are every manner of sauces available, from sweet to savory to nuclear level heat. Salt, garlic powder,and pepper are really all the meat needs for the cook.

>>11424791
American bbq is overrated.
Eastern Europe is were it’s at.

>>11424990

intensely underrated and from my experience way easier than pork ribs.

>>11424856
>best American BBQ is in Texas
Come to Kansas City and fucking fite me

>>11424791
The sugar in alot of bbq is mainly for brining and has nothing to do with making anything sweet. The only time you're adding a significant amount of sugar at all is store bought bbq sauce. Many of us who make our own foods and sauce aren't putting in the kind of sugar you're thinking.

>>11427156
>way easier than pork ribs
How so? I've never thought pork ribs were difficult just dry rub, rest overnite, smoke a couple hours and let finish out for 3-4 hours mopping periodically.

>>11424791

Yikes

New thread rule: if you think American BBQ is by default sweet, or you've only had store bought prepared items or food chains, or you tried "American BBQ" within Europe or Asia, then you need not comment. Overseas they sell American BBQ as oversweetened glazed meats because that's what most Europeans and Asians expect at this point. Non American cooking shows also make overly sugary glazes and sauces for the same reason. It's the same as calling General Tso Chicken a Chinese dish. Outside of glazed baby back ribs and some sauces the majority of BBQ is dry rubbed and seasoned meats smoked over a low flame for a long period of time. Remember that if you're not in the region for where a style of food is made that they'll cater it to local tastes and expectations and finding something authentic in these areas will be very difficult if not impossible. You are better off finding non competition bbq recipes (which use more salt and sugar for the purposes of food judging) that originate in its respective region and making it yourself.

True. From KC now live in NYC. I order from JackStack and have it delivered. Get on my level, hoes.

>>11427380
Lighten up, Francis

>>11427402
I'm moving soon and I don't know how I'm going to live without Arthur Bryant's.

I didn't know JackStack delivered to different states, at least there's some saving grace

>>11425307
it's pretty common in china buddy

>>11424836

>>11427464
Arthur Bryants has a unique paprika, mustard vinegar sauce that's goat af. You ever go to the original one down in the hood at 18th & vine? Hell it may not even be the hood nowadays, it's been years since I moved away and haven't been there.

>>11427464
So does Joe's aka Oklahoma Joe's - I have ordered from both. Fast shipping - expensive - but sooo worth it. Jackstack for Thanksgiving is my new tradition. Burnt ends, smoked turkey, and brisket. Heats up perfectly, too.

>>11427663
Used to go the Arthur Bryant's out at the casino until it closed. Shame. Loved their sandwiches.

>>11427663
The area's not too bad anymore but it's still a little hood. Their sauce is fucking nutworthy and I don't know if I can live without it, good thing they sell it on amazon.

Speaking of I don't think I've ever been angrier than when I saw a review for AB sauce that said it was garbage and wasn't sweet at all and you couldn't even cook with it. Fucking people don't like vinegar sauces deserve their feet taken by the beetus.

>>11427675
Oh hell yes I love OK Joe's. They recently changed their name to KC Joe's since they're originally from KC and were never from Oklahoma but everyone still calls them OK.

>>11424791
OBSESSED

>>11424856

Good taste

>>11427675
Happy Thanksgiving anon, I hope it tastes just like home

>>11424856

You are all fools. The best barbecue in the US is in Oklahoma, because they use Texas meats but Kansas City sauces.

>>11424890
What? Maybe South Brazil and Argentina yes, but rest of Brazil they like rare and juicy meat. Try a nice picanha first and tell write here

>>11427916
This will be the second Jackstack Thanksgiving for me.

>>11425414
moar!

What byob means in bbq places?

>>11424791
It's the best in the world.

>>11424791
BBQ is the only food in america that isnt dog shit or stolen from other countries

>>11429305
"Bring your own Beverage". Some BBQ joints refuse to spend money on a liquor license so they just let people bring their own drinks.

Had some BBQ in cape cod this weekend. Very good, they dropped the ball on the biscuits but all the meat was delicious.

>>11424791
It may not look very appetizing and it depends on who's doing the cooking but, man, is it delicious. Just the aromas hanging in the air makes you want to eat the air.

>>11429311
Bless your heart

>>11429305
I bring my own bongos; sometimes I get kicked out but it's not my fault they didn't specify what byob means.

>Oklahoma
>Just copies better states
It checks out

The only BBQ i’ve ever had is the McRib. Is that how all slow smoked bbq ribs taste? I always see pictures of bbq ribs and they look a lot bigger with the bone in them. The mcrib has onions and pickles which seems to be in line with other bbq. I’ve always wanted to try more bbq like brisket.

>>11428180
eloquently put, but honestly pretty accurate

>>11429311
shitty smoke ring, and the barks almost nonexistent. Do you eat a lot of bbq?

>>11424856
South American BBQ is overrated as shit

there's plenty of American BBQ that doesn't use sauces. Sauce is just a state specific flair they add to it, the BBQ itself is best on earth.

>>11428008
Memphis is the best easy

>>11430306

No American food is good if you value your health.

100% correct.

There are 3 things a black man will always do better than a white man. Basketball, BBQ, and Barbershops

>>11424836
>milk in a measuring cup
I thought that was obvious, guess some people need everything explained.

The best taste sensation on the planet is the combination of fatty, smokey BBQ meat and raw onion/pickle. Simply perfect.

>>11424856
I must say i agree.

AS much as i love our BBQ they put to much sauces, that basically cover the taste of meat. Its like they dont even really know how to seasonn the meat, so they just throw the most over powering shit possible with sugar. so at least you can say mm sugar!

>>11427059

slaw, for me. i love that crunch that you're describing.
i can't wait for the next time i make coleslaw and ribs or chicken or butt.

>>11431294
This. Also, raw red onion and cucumber with smokey, garlicky grilled lamb.
