| Summary |
In 1991 Ed Mitchell drove to the nearby Piggly Wiggly, bought a thirty-five-pound pig (that's a small one), and fired up the coals. That was the start of his barbeque business. Now ed is known simply as "the Pitmaster" in barbeque circles and is widely considered to be one of the best at what he does. Here Ed and his son, Ryan, share the tradition of whole-hog barbeque, and share methods passed down through generations. Bring your barbeque to the next level-- and celebrate the rich and complex history of North Carolina whole-hog barbeque. - adapted from back cover |
