Not your traditional smoked pulled pork, but a really tasty and much quicker version. This pulled pork should be served over a soft hamburger roll and with my outstanding coleslaw.

A colorful slaw that is perfect for any barbecue. Crunchy and tangy, this cole slaw is always a favorite in the summer time. For more of a bite, use white vinegar in place of the apple cider vinegar. Best if made at least 3-4 hours ahead. Celery seed can be added for another level of flavor.

I remember having this brisket as a child. My Mom handed this recipe down to me and there is no room for improvement. With the sweet tanginess from the ketchup and the saltiness from the soy sauce-it is truly a dish that will have people remembering your backyard BBQ.

A caramely sauce with a slight kick at the end. I like to use Jack Daniels even though its not a bourbon-the flavor it imparts to the sauce is second to none! You can use your favorite bourbon if you prefer. I have found that Makers Mark will produce excellent results also.

A Cajun spin on an American favorite. This burger has the great flavors of Andouille sausage, blue cheese, and is tempered by the addition of the Tabasco aioli, caramelized onions and arugula. This is a hefty burger and probably will require a nap shortly after eating!
