In this episode, I chat with Veronica Meewes, the gal behind the book entitled Texas BBQ, the Art of Low and Slow. Veronica spent three years traveling around Texas, gaining a thorough knowledge of barbecue, eating some of the most delicious food, and listening to some amazing stories. Along with these stories, this beautiful denim-covered book displays some stunning illustrations from several familiar photographers. I personally used it as a kind of yearbook while I was at the Texas Monthly BBQ Festival, getting folks to sign it for me, and I plan to carry it with me when I make my barbecue runs so I can fill it up! This is the story of her journey. I hope you enjoy the show.
