- 1. Smoke ScreenSmoke is the soul of true barbecue. As you climb the ladder of barbecue enlightenment, you’ll want to be able to smoke a variety of foods in a variety of grills and smokers. This show explores four diverse foods: ribs, turkey, salmon, and even a dessert—prepared in a traditional offset barrel smoker, a water smoker, a charcoal grill, and a stovetop smoker. Sorry…no gas grills allowed.TV-GCC30minMay 9, 2008
- 2. Kebabs Of The World UniteMeat on a stick represented the first technological leap forward in the evolution of barbecue. The popularity of kebabs and sates around the world attests to the universal appeal of skewered foods. So why do so many kebabs come on bamboo skewers with burnt ends or on metal skewers with raw onions, overcooked meat, and tomatoes that fall into the embers? If you’ve ever had trouble nailing the perfect shish kebab, or you want to expand your repertoire, this show is for you.TV-GCC30minMay 16, 2008

- 4. Bird Meets GrillWhen I was growing up,” barbecue” meant chicken marinated in sweet barbecue sauce, burnt charcoal-black on the outside, still raw inside, and reeking of lighter fluid. Sound familiar? This show will teach you the right way to grill America’s favorite bird: on a charcoal grill, in a smoker, and on a gas grill.TV-GCC30minMay 30, 2008
- 5. Fish Without FearA lot of people are intimidated by the idea of grilling fish. With good reason! When you grill fish, does it A) stick to the grill grate; B) break into pieces; C) come out raw in the center; D) come out hopelessly overcooked; or E) all of the above? This show will give you three great ways to grill fish without fear—or tears.TV-GCC30minJun 6, 2008
- 6. Vegetarians at The GrillWhen I was growing up, the options for a vegetarian at a typical barbecue were limited to hamburger buns or potato salad. In many parts of the world…in India and Japan, for example…meatless grilling produces some of the most interesting food to come off the fire. So whether you’re grilling for vegetarians, or you just want to cut back on the meat sometimes, this sizzling show has you covered.TV-GCC30minJun 13, 2008
- 7. Shoulders And ButtsIn Memphis, Tennessee, and the Carolinas, “barbecue” means just one thing: pork shoulder smoke-roasted until it’s so tender you can pull it apart with your fingers. But pit masters all over the world love this crusty, meaty, well-marbled cut, and today, I’m going to show you how to grill the perfect pork shoulder—American, Caribbean, and even Balinese style. No ifs, ands, or pork butts, about it.TV-GCC30minJun 20, 2008

- 10. One Good Turn (Rotisserie Grilling)Are we listening when you write in to the Barbecue Board? You bet! And one question you ask a lot is how to improve your rotisserie skills.

Here’s the lowdown on spit-roasting duck, prime rib, and even baby back ribs.TV-GCC30minJul 11, 2008
- 11. Learning To Love LambThe statistics are in and the winner is…definitely not lamb. Americans consume less than 1 pound per person per year. But on any given night, more pit masters around the world are grilling lamb than probably any other meat. The lamb zone begins in Morocco and extends east all the way to New Zealand. You cannot consider yourself a well-rounded grill master until you’ve mastered lamb.TV-GCC30minJul 18, 2008
