Why You Can Trust Our BBQ Recipes, Guides, & Reviews

We started out just like you – not sure where to begin with grilling and smoking BBQ. Over the years, we’ve honed our skills with practice, asking questions of the pitmasters, making the mistakes we hope to help you avoid, buying both useful and terrible grills. We started with traditional BBQ, but heart and health issues forced us to take another look at our favorite BBQ recipes – after all, no one wants to give up a favorite food!

Whether you’re skeptical about how good grilled veggies can REALLY be (surprisingly amazing!) or just curious about eating cleaner and healthier, we offer tested recipes you can try with friends and family at your next BBQ!
