8 ans de passion pour le barbecue

Tout savoir sur le barbecue

Ça fait environ 8 ans que je fais des grillades, du fumage et du barbecue, et ça a été un incroyable parcours fait de saveurs, d’expérimentation et d’évolution. En tant que fier ambassadeur Masterbuilt, je cuisine principalement sur mon Gravity Series 1050, qui est rapidement devenu mon barbecue préféré. J’adore aussi utiliser mon fumoir électrique Masterbuilt comme four de maintien pour garder au chaud mes poitrines de bœuf, mes épaules de porc et mes côtes jusqu’à ce qu’elles soient prêtes à être servies au dîner. Ma cuisine d’extérieur est équipée de 8 types d’appareils de cuisson différents, mais pour être honnête, la plupart restent inutilisés. Rien ne vaut la polyvalence et la simplicité d’utilisation de mon 1050 : c’est de loin mon préféré, et c’est celui que j’utilise le plus parmi tout mon matériel.

Maîtriser le barbecue : questions-réponses avec Curtis Rogers

What inspired you to start barbecuing?
I started out with just a simple gas grill for quick and easy cooking, but everything changed when my family gifted me a Masterbuilt electric smoker. That’s when I really got hooked. The more I smoked, the more I fell in love with the slow process of it all. Now, I love the 8, 10, and even 12-hour cooks and all the prep work that goes into them.
How long have you been barbecuing?
I’ve been grilling for many years, but I really dove into smoking and BBQ in the past several years. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve developed a greater appreciation for the slow process and the patience it requires. It’s become a true passion of mine.
What advice would you give someone new to grilling?
My advice is to invest in a grill that’s bigger than you think you’ll need, because as you get better, you’ll want to cook for more people and share your creations. Trust me, you’ll appreciate the extra space as you grow in your BBQ journey!
Do you have any advice for a new BBQ content creator?
Consistency is key. Post often and stay engaged with your followers. I know I need to take my own advice and post more frequently, but that’s definitely the best way to build a presence and grow your audience in this space.
What’s your favorite grilling technique and why?
My favorite technique has to be low and slow smoking. It’s all about taking your time, allowing the flavors to develop, and giving the proteins the attention they deserve. After smoking, I like holding them in a warming oven for a few hours to really lock in those flavors.
What’s your favorite recipe?
Peanut butter stuffed jalapeño poppers wrapped in bacon and smoked. They’re a crowd-pleaser and have the perfect balance of savory and spicy. It’s one of my go-to recipes when I want something fun and flavorful.
