About Me

Obsessive Compulsive Barbecue
Welcome to Obsessive Compulsive Barbecue! My name is Joe Haynes. This site is a record of my BBQ cooking journey. Cooking delicious barbecue isn't a destination; it's a never ending quest to reach the ultimate goal of tender, mouthwatering barbecue perfection. DISCLAIMER Do not take my advice on anything. This blog is about my experiences, studies and how I cook barbecue and what I have learned about barbecue history, techniques and recipes. This blog is not intended to be learning, training or safety material. For training, safety and learning to cook BBQ, hire a professional. Do NOT try this stuff at home based on what you see or read here. I hope you enjoy your time reading the site. Here I share my cooking victories, defeats, recipes, barbecue cooking and grilling techniques, product reviews, barbecue history, contemplations, reflections, ruminations, and perhaps even some cogitation. All of the photographs and illustrations on this blog are mine unless otherwise noted. Cheers!
