I had the opportunity to attend Harry's Soo's class this past weekend and, without disclosing his trade secrets, I wanted to share some of the more valuable things I took away from it:
1. Though I thought I knew BBQ, I really knew nothing about BBQ. All of my former processes are now useless to me.
2. For any given BBQ task, there are 900 different ways to complete that task. None of them are wrong, but only one may be right for you.
3. BBQ is about having fun and bringing people together. Be humble and share.
One of the things that blew me away about Harry's attitude is that he doesn't care what you cook on, just enjoy it. He even advocated doing BBQ in an oven - he really doesn't care. Everyone has an opinion about this thing being better than that thing or this way being better than that way, but Harry is good with whatever it is you want to do.
Harry is also very gracious and shares all of his recipes and techniques with the class. He also donates the proceeds to charity, which is also very unusual.
It was a very humbling and enlightening experience, and I'm very glad that I went. In addition to learning some really nice recipes and techniques, Harry shared some thoughts that were very inspiring and put a lot of things into perspective to me. I was very grateful for that.
I very highly recommend Harry's class if you have the inclination. :thumb:
