Competition BBQ Secrets

Bill,

Just wanted to take a minute to say hi and let you know my family and I just got back from Memphis in May.We got their about 5:30 Friday evening and to be honest I was really disappointed. It wasn’t anything like I expected, especially when you watch the Food Network. Maybe that was a little stupid on my part. I thought it would be a more family like atmosphere,but it seemed like a big private party in a lot of ways. Maybe its just me but it wasn’t what I expected. I was hoping to buy your book but could not find your booth, but I will be sending you a check to get a copy.Thanks for your newsletter and I will look forward to getting a copy of Competition BBQ Secrets.Was Chatham Artillery BBQ at Memphis in May this past weekend.

Thanks Al

I just recieved your book and when I read about woods for smoking I didn’t see Alder on your list of hardwoods . Here in Northwest Washington most of the folks use Alder and Maple. I think it’s because we smoke a lot of Salmon. Have you any experience using it for ribs?
