Doug Derda knows barbecue, so we asked him to share some of his secrets. His website, Yinz Love BBQ, is a compendium of all things rubbed, smoked, and sauce-slathered in Western Pennsylvania. There’s a directory so you can source some good barbecue, a blog where he shares industry news and his competition experiences, and an events listing (although the latter might be less important at the moment). In this episode, Derda gives some current take-out recommendations and explains some of his at-home barbecue setup. If you plan on upping your grill game during this stay-home summer, we highlight some places to consider for meat shopping, and Derda shouts out Williams Ace Hardware in West Newton as one of his favorite one-stop shops for barbecue accessories and seasonings. Plus, Steel City Salt Co. in Millvale recently released an everything bagel blend, so you can shop local to spice up your homemade breads and biscuits. And don’t snooze on ShuBrew’s half-off growler fill Tuesdays.
