First of all, this is not the recipe on the show. I have the throwdown book with this episode. This is supposed to bake in the oven at 250 for the first 4 hours with her dry rub recipe and baked with apple juice in the bottom of the pan. Then remove the pork and lined with foil, and pur remainder of apple juice, cover and bake another 4 hours. I am making it tomorrow. I will give you my review later.

I completely agree with other comments-- hardly anyone on any of the cooking shows (check DDD!! gives out every secret. I wouldn't either! Think about it -- these BBQ/smoking pros aren't going to give out their secrets. It just so happens that I just got done smoking a pork butt some 12 hours yesterday -- after several days of research and prep, I had a pretty nice batch of pulled pork. This is only my second attempt at smoking a pork butt, so there is room for improvement. While relaxing with the TV, I watched this throwdown. What great timing. I LIKED this show because Leann mentioned invaluable TECHNIQUES. This either confirmed I did something right or maybe the next time will tweak it. Half the fun is trying different rubs and marinades and see how it turns out.

Nice Horizon smoker.. I have the smaller one. For all the backyard cooks I use the "south shall rub again" over night in zip bag. Wood is oak in bulk and add hickory chunks every hour about a hand full. Smoker set at no higher than 250 indirect of course. or as far away from heat as possible. % lb butt about 8 hours min. internal temp 195-205. Baste every 2 hrs. 50/50 apple juiceand apple vinager. good smoking Ig

The woman has got her stuff together! All of you hater's that complain about not getting the recipe need to sit down and do your own homework! We don't give all of our recipes out because if you can just do it at home;you won't come to our establishments to get it! DUH!!

Stop being mad that this woman did not give out all her secrets. Also what's it to you that the people being challenged get to advertise what they do on national tv? If their food is that good that Bobby Flay is challenging them, then I would say they deserve their 15 minutes of fame. If you had a business, would you turn away free advertising that could bring in more money? I don't think so! Bruce, Bobby Flay is a good chef, but fixed or not, the competitors often win because they have YEARS of perfecting the certain dish they are known for. Bobby Flay doesn't always have the experience or knowledge in certain areas. Remember that Bobby Flay's main thing is like Tex-Mex fusion, not Chinese, Caribbean, or baking for that matter.

Geez people. If your recipe is what's driving business into your establishment......why on earth would you give it out? Winning recipes are guarded. You don't see KFC giving out its fried chicken recipe do you??? Watch the show, get some idea's, work them into your own rub recipe. Use your imagination and create something of your own.......these people did. It's not and never has been a condition that the people featured on Throwdown have to give out the recipe. So quit whining when they don't.

What recipe for what! Get real folks! Hope the show runs again so I can write it down. You need to re-evaluate your show, your going down hill. If you don't want to get off the recipe stay off the show and keep to yourself. Don't use the tube for your advantage and waste our time!

Had I known the site wasn't going to give Wood Chick's recipes for rub, sauce and slaw ..I'd have taped the show or written the recipes down. Can only hope they re-run show....Never had this happen before..very disappointed.

Do you really think a competitive pitmaster is going to give away their secret recipe? Whether the show is fixed or not, its entertainment with a goal of providing different ways of cooking traditional dishes. Personally I think Bobby Flay is an excellent chef. His success is measured by his passion for the art of cooking, unlike other chefs on the show who feel the need to be in the spotlight. like a talk show host.
