About

Smoke Tested BBQ is where I share BBQ recipes and gear recommendations that actually get used.
I’m not a competition pitmaster and I’m not here to sell you hype. If it’s on this site, it was tested the only way that matters—on the smoker. No fluff. No sponsored nonsense. Just real backyard BBQ.

What you’ll find here:

  • Recipes that work in the real world
  • Gear reviews with honest pros/cons
  • Tips & fixes for when a cook goes sideways
