    The bread is thick cut white bread. Many people will put their brisket or pulled pork on that bread and eat it as a sandwich.

    In defense of the sliced white bread, bbq is humble in its origins, so sliced white bread was always a cheap, available and filling side for many restaurants, and eventually it just became standard in most places. Nowadays, the best places are baking their own bread or bringing in fresh from local bakeries. When I eat bbq, I like to take 1 slice to make a mini brisket or pulled pork sandwich. To me, it also has a very nostalgic feeling to it. The best are soft, doughy, and soak up the fatty oils of the meats well.

    It's there to just soak up all of the juices and/or sauces to make sure none of the flavor goes to waste. While I do love a good, artisan loaf of bread, you don't want anything with a harder crust or air pockets that are too big. You just want something that can sop up all of that flavor so you can enjoy every drop without having to gnaw at it.

    It's not just talent that is needed to emulate this style of cuisine. Two huge hurdles for emulating this in Europe are about what's available in the region. American style beef and the cuts of beef are just not the same in Europe. Importing these cuts of American beef on a small scale for a handful of restaurants would be wildly expensive. The next and even bigger hurdle to overcome is how the meat is smoked. Typically, post oak wood is what is burned to create the smoke that is used to flavor the meat. Post oak trees are simply not native to any region in Europe. Importing properly seasoned post oak wood and American beef is simply not economical for a number of reasons and may not even be possible to due to trade regulations.

    I'm a born and raised Texan. I'm sixty years old and I grew up in Austin Texas where this particular Black's BBQ is. I've eaten there many times. And yes, the food is just as good as these guys are saying it is. Although it's really hard to appreciate just how big those fantastic beef ribs really are. I'm 6 foot 3 inches tall and I weigh 315 pounds. And I have a hard time finishing just a single beef rib there. It's so much meat and so rich and fatty. It's like eating cake it's so tender.

    White bread goes with smoked bbq. It just does, your palette needs a break in between all the rich meat. A bite every once in awhile of white bread is what we use. Don't knock it until you try it. What yall call BBQ we call grilling. Our BBQ is really smoking meat over low, indirect heat for hours. A brisket generally takes about 14 hours.

    The bread is to mop up any grease from some of the food. A nice thick cut like that is good at soaking in extra grease and broth from the food. Also: you're talking my language with the food. I love a good barbecue myself and gnawing the meat off a beautifully cooked bone.

    Ive been to Black BBQ and they are not exaggerating. However, Ive had great BBQ in 6 different states that is just as good. No two places were the same but equally good. My former position required me traveling throughout the USA and I found fantastic restaurants in many places I didn't expect. I had a sweet deal with the owner of the company I work for. He said because your traveling sooooo much I want you to stay in the best hotels and eat at the best restaurants. I found the best places normally didn't look great from outside. Many fancy or famous restaurants were great too but finding a place like Black BBQ was more fun.

    Jolly just posted a new BBQ video on Louisiana BBQ and I think they liked it even better than Texas BBQ. The thing about the bread is that it is meant to be used to catch the juice from the meat so it's not wasted. Some restaurants will bake their own bread, which is much better, but some use the cheap bread you buy in the stores which is not nearly as good.

    The white bread is traditional. Back when most BBQ was sold out of grocery store butcher counters. It was usually in the form of chopped beef and they'd give you enough bread to make your own sandwiches. The meat was often shoulder clod or brisket, sometimes pulled pork. It was also very cheap. How times have changed.

  • @allibrown8960

    The pork ribs have a dry rub, which sits on the pork at LEAST 24 hours before being cooked, which creates juices that are re-basted onto the ribs as they cook. It caramelizes because the rub contains sugar (probably brown sugar).

    In Texas BBQ it is part of the standard plate. Texas BBQ is rustic in nature and generally this was a meal for the middle class. We worked hard, bought ribs and brisket,... slaved 14 hours babying the meat to a perfect tenderness and then share with the entire family. Rip or shred the pork and put it on a piece of Texas toast, add some bbq sauce and chow down!!! 😋 So, the bread is complimentary... served with the meat and it soaks up a lot of the natural juices...you'll thank them later.👍

We have local markets that specialize in Portuguese food, meat and wine. Every other culture in our city embraces good Portuguese food... except for people with UK ancestry who consider Portuguese food too "spicy". While it can be spicy hot, it's more well seasoned with spices. Frankly, my palate has been spoiled by having been raised on my grandmother's cooking. Most everything else I've tasted has been somewhat bland. When I moved to Florida 8 years ago I was afraid I wouldn't adapt to Southern food.

    Uhmmmm... Nope. this is "where YOU need to learn" ;) Bread is for what we in the south call "sopping up" it's like a napkin you eat. You "sop up the gravy...", the juices, whatever. and you eat it. 'Toast' - You push it around with toast. You sop i tup with bread - bread is like your plate's mop. It keeps you from having to get gross and lick the plate. We waste nothing. :)) Of course, it is just there IF you want it. No one says you have to clean your plate (you'll probably want too), it's there to help if you do. Like a napkin. You don't have to use a napkin. Maybe you use your sleeve, or you just walk around afterwords all gross; P But the bread is optional, it's there if you want it, the old saying is to "break bread", not break rolls, or break brisket, to "Break bread with your neighbors.

    😂 Hey there, from South Texas (San Antonio). My husband is going to throw a turkey on the barbecue pit in a few for Thanksgiving tomorrow. Instead, I've opted for a couple of steaks for my Thanksgiving dinner. My grandma (93yo) lives about 30 mins away, and they're deep frying 1 turkey and making the other in the traditional fashion. Love your channel❤ You'll have to come visit the Lone Star State one day.

    André, if all goes well with this channel, you will someday soon be able to travel to the US and try this Texas BBQ. This is Terry Black's in Austin, Texas. At the end of the year, Josh and Ollie did a wrap-up of their channel in 2023. This was their favorite meal of the year. That's all you need to know.

    The bread with BBQ is just meant to essentially sop up the juices from the meat. It is never meant to be "the best bread" you've ever had. The focus is on the meat and sides.

    Yes, the bread can be used as a napkin and to soak up all of the juices to eat and I’ve heard it helps with stomach so you don’t get sick afterwards. A lot of people also take that bread for leftovers to make sandwiches with the leftovers for lunch the next day.

    When it comes to turkey, smoking it or frying it is the best way to go to get a nice flavor. And I never got the white bread thing either, it would seem like a waste because most people probably wouldn’t touch it. Cornbread, on the other hand… nice and warm, sliced open and filled with whipped butter….. aaahhhhhh!!!😊

    That's not just regular white bread it's called Texas Toast bread that is usually a tiny bit sweeter & it is much thicker than regular bread so it won't fall apart & it's buttery tasting & these restaurants usually don't want anything fancy that takes away from the taste of the meat so they need plain bread for that & I absolutely love Texas toast when making grilled cheese sandwich or a BLT is great on Texas toast, you'll like Texas toast trust me. I live in North Carolina which is about 16hrs away from Terry Black's in Dallas Texas & it might as well be on the moon because it's doubtful I'll get there anytime soon. So it makes me mad I can't get there too & why don't we have a Terry Black's here in NC. 😆😆😆😳🙏🍖🦃🍞💜😍

    I actually live less than an hour away lived in the area my whole life. I can honestly say that I have tried more BBQ than you can imagine. Franklins, Salt Lick and Blacks are all very good, but Blacks is on a level you can't understand until you have tried. The large rib everyone sees on Tv is about 45.00 bucks. Don't buy rib each, no way you can eat all that food. The way the fat is rendered in the beef rib is insane. Some women are not fans of BBQ, but my friend who tried it took a bite of the Rib and for 5 minutes started saying OMG. OMG. My preferred way of going there is with people who have never been. Priceless faces! The absolute hottest restaurant in Austin now is Blacks BBQ Sushi, you can't get in so reservations only.

    Turkey has less fat which is a major source of flavor. That said, I'll be smoking two turkeys for our Thanksgiving this Thursday. One of the tricks is to brine the turkey then stuff it full of fruits and season the skin. It should be about a 14 hour smoke for the two 14lb turkeys. Then another hour or two for the 5lbs of sausage I need to prepare. Someone else is in charge of the sides.

    Personally, I make more pork BBQ than I do beef BBQ. For me, ribs need a good, flavorful rub that contains some sugar and then to sit and marinade like that for at least twenty-four hours. I usually smoke them with apple or cherry wood, since both trees grow on my property. They get brushed with a honey based sauce about forty-five minutes before coming off the pit. All that said, I really believe the wood you use is probably the most important part. Fruit woods impart a natural, sweet flavor and convey that fruit flavor in the smoke. Sometimes I add Maple to the smoke for the last hour or so as well.

    One of the best things about this American style of BBQ is some of the best of it uses the cheapest meats. Like brisket, probably the most popular and the favorite of most people. I can get a prime grade brisket for half the price per pound of the next closest cheapest beef cut I can get at a store. Put it in a smoker for 14 or so hours and you get what many of us consider the best food in existence. We Americans do a lot of things wrong, but BBQ is one of the things we do right (if you get the right stuff or do it the right way). I live in Arizona but among my 7 or so outdoor cooker is a Texas style offset smoker. Nothing compares to the food off of that thing for me, nothing.

    These gents also neglected the pickles and onions. The bread absorbs while the pickle and onion cleanse the palette to ensure it is ready to fully experience the next bite. In Texas, we don't use sauce. When meat is cooked properly, it requires none. Sauce is added to mask the inability of the pit-master to wait. Sauce on meat is offensive. Period. We are the foremost in what proper barbecue and slow smoking is.
