When we think of smoked entrees for Christmas dinner, we usually think of prime rib, crown roast of pork, lobster, etc. but don't feel like you're stuck in a box.

We often do a big mess of smoked pork ribs or even a big ol' fat brisket for Christmas dinner.

Hi Jeff,
Since I live in Austin, what better way to support our local restaurants than to buy local at Christmas. We have been buying a brisket from Franklins for our Christmas dinner for the last several years and it is delicious. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a prosperous new year.

I’ve been following you for at least a couple of years and look forward to your emails!
I’ve used many of your recipes with awesome results and I’d say I save 99% of your emails for future use.
Thanks for the great advice and keep up the good work.
Merry Christmas!!!
