New School Barbecue: Recipes for Next-Level Smoking and Grilling (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781419780103)

Evan LeRoy is an Austin native who has been a fixture in the extremely competitive Texas barbecue scene for almost a decade. He rose to prominence cooking inventive barbecue at Freedmen's, and eventually opened his own food truck, LeRoy and Lewis, with partners Sawyer and Nathan Lewis in 2017, serving what they call "new school barbecue." The restaurant ranks highly on the Texas Monthly Top 50 Barbecue Joints, and LeRoy has taught barbecue all over the world. He lives in Austin, Texas, with his wife, Lindsey, and their daughter, Frankie. Paula Forbes is the author of 2018's The Austin Cookbook, helped write The Big Texas Cookbook by the editors of Texas Monthly, and coauthored Cured: Cooking with Ferments, Pickles, Preserves & More with San Antonio chef Steve McHugh. Formerly an editor at Eater and Epicurious, and cookbook critic for Lucky Peach magazine, Forbes is currently the senior food and drinks writer for Texas Monthly magazine and the editor of Stained Page News, an IACP Award-nominated cookbook newsletter with over 13,000 avid cookbook fan subscribers. She lives in Austin, Texas.
