La Luna BBQ

Welcome to La Luna BBQ! This site was created for the sharing of BBQ tips, tricks, recipes, videos, and anything else BBQ that catches my eye!

La Luna BBQ is essentially a dream-stage project, which will hopefully come to fruition over time. I am trying to build a small network, and following in order to help myself learn more about BBQ and the BBQ community. Additionally, to build a future support and exposure base for future ventures including my dream of owning a food service business, and to compete in local and national contests with my mouth watering BBQ recipes and techniques.

I have been cooking and creating since i was a young child, and my parents and 10 siblings were a constant support and often the unwitting recipients of a food failure. My strength and passion is in creating without the constraints of set recipes. Making something new, and trying new things, parings or techniques as i go.

I have been involved with BBQ, smoking and processing meat, curing and preserving meat to carrying degrees for most of my adult life, and more recently honed and cultivated my smoking skills and recipes into something that i feel is a unique take on traditional BBQ; combining styles and techniques from various regional traditions. I have skills and background in more modern cooking techniques, and openly welcome and use them to create unexpected results in BBQ.

I am certainly new to the BBQ community, and i am constantly learning things i never knew living in Utah, a less predominant BBQ state. I would love the opportunity to learn from more experienced BBQ fanatics and pit masters as i go through this process, and i encourage, and plead for your feedback, and comments on my various posts and videos.

This site may not see a lot of action or updates itself, but please see my Facebook page, and Youtube channel for regular updates. Essentially this is more of a placeholder for future ventures and dreams.

I hope you enjoy this ride with me!
