Book Reviews of BBQ Joints

Book Review: Family Members of one of the BBQ places featured in the book - Hite's BBQ
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm a family member of Hite's BBQ located in West Columbia, SC. Hite's is one of the BBQ places featured in the book. My mother and father have been in business since 1957 and I appreciate Mr. Gelin for putting us in his book. As for the "secret recipes", I think it is hard for BBQ places to give their recipes out for the whole world to see. I hope you'll stop by to see us when you're in SC. We are a take out only establishment and we are only open on Friday and Saturday of each week. We've been on the news channels, SCETV, and on the front page of the State paper on July 4th 2007. We have a write up about us in the McKissick Museum and now we're in a book. I hope you enjoy reading the book.

Summary of BBQ Joints

In Barbecue Joints, travel the highways and byways with a true barbecue aficionado, David Gelin, and share the scrumptious odors of hickory pits and the tangy sauces and rubs that make barbecue the signature dish of the South. Look closely and you will recognize a South where barbecue is a kind of national dish and the people who cook and serve it are, well, national heroes. This book is not just about the joints, but even more so about the good folks who are the heart and soul of them. Barbecue Joints is more than a heartfelt tale of the colorful characters that run them-it also serves as a travel guide as well as a how-to on barbecue, filled with recipes as well as instruction on building a BBQ pit of your very own!
Recipes Include:
Patricia Newton's Sweet Potato Pie
Abe's Cole Slaw
Duard Dockal's Beans
Scott's BBQ Hot-Sauce
Elvis's Pound Cake
Ricky William's Hot Dog Chil
S.W. Buck's Macaroni & Cheese
Katy Garner's Hog Heaven Fruit Cobbler
Shack by the Tracks Butter Scotch Squares
Author Biography: David Howard Gelin was born in New York and raised outside of Washington, D.C. Fate, college, and mild winters brought him to the South. Along with his aptly named Buddy, an animal rescue dog slated for that big doghouse in the sky, they are most at home on the open road. They hope to see you out there.
