BBQ Books

Books about Barbecue

Here are the barbecue books we recommend if you want to master barbecue. If you want to make the perfect brisket, cupcake chicken thighs or just want to understand barbecue basis better, these will get you there.

If you want to master Texas Barbecue, especially the brisket, then Aaron Franklin’s meat smoking manifesto is a must-have. You also cannot go wrong with any of the Myron Mixon books. If you are looking for an overall book to get started I highly recommend Steven Raichlen The Barbecue! Bible. If you are looking for new ideas the Tex Mex book will do that and more.
