Barbecue season is upon us! The weather is warming up and people are headed outdoors to enjoy the company of friends and family with the help of the flavors of their favorite foods fresh off the grill. The savory flavors of true barbeque and the grill continue to entice consumers to try new items.

True barbecue is ‘low and slow’ cooking with a lot of wood smoke—a rack of ribs or brisket smoked and cooked over a period of days versus hours—and includes whole animals, too. It’s slow cooking at its best. The term grilling refers to relatively fast cooking using direct, high heat, and encompasses most everything that’s thrown on the back patio grill.
