Horn, one of Food & Wine's ten "Best New Chefs" for 2021, is the most exciting new talent in American barbecue in years. His Horn Barbecue restaurant in Oakland, California, recently awarded a rare "Michelin Bib Gourmand" designation, has lines outside that run for blocks and hundreds of rave reviews in the media. The draw? Cooked-to-perfection meats rubbed, mopped, basted, and sauced the way good BBQ should be, plus comforting sides and fixins' and inspired desserts and drinks. Now the restaurant's secret recipes, and many more from Matt's own personal repertoire, are revealed in the pages of this exciting, user-friendly, and beautifully photographed book. So what sets this cookbook apart from the rest? Matt's original barbecue style. Other barbecue cookbooks focus on one regional tradition, such as Texas or the Carolinas. Matt draws on both of those traditions--and recipes from them appear liberally in this book--but he draws on other traditions as well and adds his own California-style spin to the mix, by working in lots of veggies and fruits and by featuring things like poultry and seafood, which are non-traditional BBQ proteins. Matt also tells his own inspiring story of how he learned to make BBQ and open a restaurant, and about how his journey echoes and continues the glorious lineage of Black barbecue in the US--an amazing yet often unknown history.
