Blogroll

This is a list of blogs that I like to read myself. Some of the writers I consider friends, some don’t know me at all, but I find myself going back to these sites over and over.

Barbecue Blogs

  • Another Pint Please – Mike is a local blogger to me, and makes me jealous of his photography every time I’m on his site!  He does beer brewing as well as lots of grilling.
  • The BBQ Grail - There is bbq in California.  Larry also does a lot for the blogging community, and hosts the 4 Ingredient Challenge every month!
  • BBQ Guy’s BBQ Blog – the only barbecue blog with morealliteration than mine. Brian is a great guy with a lot of barbecue know-how
  • Bigmista BBQ – Quickly taking over on the LA BBQ scene
  • Cowgirl’s Country Life – Cowgirl Jeanie can cook anything over a fire, after raising or growing it herself
  • Diva Q – Danielle is not only a great competitor, but a good person with a wonderful family.
  • Grill Grrrl Blog – Robyn provides a healthy view of grilling.
  • The Hampton Smoker – He does East Coast barbecue right
  • Hot Sauce Daily – Brian and Marilyn do hot sauce reviews and host a hot sauce podcast every week. Not strictly bbq, but what’s bbq without a bit of heat?
  • Nibble Me This – Chris has a great following due to his personable writing and great photos.  I like to think I helped inspire him, but that’s a complete and utter lie.
  • No Excuses BBQ – BBQ in the great Northwest, regardless of the weather
  • Patio Daddio BBQ – John does a great job of bbq and adds a wide variety of well-thought-out recipes.
  • Playing with Fire and Smoke – LOTS of barbecue recipes and somepretty darn good bbq photos
  • Plowboys BBQ – A great competition team that also has really goodideas on what to do with leftover barbecue (if only I could figure outhow to have leftover barbecue)
  • Smoke In Da Eye – Competition BBQ, SmokeInDaEyeStyle
  • White Trash BBQ – Another New Yorker bringing barbecue knowledge to the uninitiated
  • It’s not a blog, but it is my favorite forum: The BBQ Brethren.

Other Food Blogs

  • Dine and Dish – Kristen does a great job of showing how she feeds a family very well.  She also is the one that organizes Adopt-a-Blogger, a great way to help other bloggers.
  • Discover Artisan Beef – This is my newest adopted blog, done by Carrie Oliver of Oliver Ranch and the Artisan Beef Institute. Great info on what really makes a difference in meat.
  • The Foodologist – Dr. Guy doesn’t post often, but when he does,it’s worth the read, and I wish I could take photos like he does.
