Book Stuff

Random House is having an essay contest for people between 20 and 29. They plan to publish twenty-something essays by twenty-something people. Get it? 20×20.

My reading material right now is How to Grill by Steven Raichlen, author of “The Barbecue! Bible” and other fire-oriented cookbooks, author of a BBQ blog and host of a TV show called BBQ University.

This was the cookbook we made North-Carolina-style pulled pork shoulder from, and I have to say he gets it right– it was the best pork shoulder I’d had in years.
