somebody shut me the fark up.
Years ago, there was a restaurant in Oakland CA that sold a dish called Red Smoked Prime Rib, this was the best fire roasted prime rib I ever had. The flavors were exceptional and the wood smoke was sublime. I know she used a smoke shack, you could see it outside the restaurant. From what I know, the owner/chef was from Louisiana and her recipes were her families.
My question is, what wood and spices would be common to rural Louisiana that a person coming from that background would normally use. I asked her and a former head chef from there, and neither would give me a thing. They freely shared the gumbo recipe, but, no go on wood used or seasoning and technique for the prime rib. Any ideas?
