REPEAT DUE TO ANDY TEACHING AMERICAN BBQ IN SOUTH KOREA
"Celebrity Chef" Aaron Franklin was named Best Chef: Southwest by the James Beard Foundation in 2015.  After countless hours spent working the pit, he has earned a reputation as one of the top celebrity chefs in the BBQ. It all began in 2009 when he and his wife Stacy opened up the first location of Franklin Barbecue, a food trailer located just off the interstate in Austin. In just 2 years, they would move to a real brick and mortar location and the restaurant earned a feature on Anthony Bourdain’s TV travel series No Reservations in 2012. Very soon Franklin BBQ garnered several mentions from reputable sources as the best BBQ in America.

In April of 2015, Franklin published his first cookbook titled Franklin Barbecue: A Meat Manifesto. The cookbook has been dubbed a definitive resource for the backyard pitmaster, providing readers with a top-to-bottom education on cooking meat and brisket. Available May 9, Aaron's new book "Smoke" will be available everywhere, including Amazon (where it can be pre-ordered).
