Praise for Everyday Barbecue

Mixon does an admirable job of showing grillers, smokers, and barbecuers how they can turn labor and time-intensive grilling and barbecue projects into weekday meals with a minimum of fuss in this to-the-point collection of 150 smoke-centered recipes. . . . Its his ingenious use of leftovers that will make readers take notice as he offers suggestions for mountains of leftover brisket, pulled pork, or chicken. This approachrather than a multitude of variations on ribs, pulled pork and a bevy of saucessets the book apart and make it a keeper.Publishers Weekly
