@@epickleuva see that’s the thing about these masters - they don’t hold back. Watch the follow-up videos where I recreate their recipes at home - they are teaching us everything.
I had a chance to meet and talk with Cooper a couple of weeks ago as part of Leroy and Lewis' New School BBQ U class. He took the time to drive to Austin to speak with us about the BBQ business, how he learned to cook, the path he took to opening his place, his philosophy on work/life balance (He makes sure that he is home every night to put his kids to bed even though it means he will be back at work for a few hours later that night), and a ton of other topics. He ended the talk by giving us all his contact information and telling us we could hit him up with any questions at any time and he truly meant it. He is one of the most genuine people I have met in a very long time. I need to make the 2000 mile or so trip to eat at his place.
This is by far the best video you have ever made. It's because BBQ is more than just a story about food. It's a story about the experience of making and sharing BBQ, and of the hardworking people who do it for a living. You nailed it. You captured the story of a wonderful family who took the lessons they learned from the gridiron to the pit iron and are now winning on the competitive field of Texas BBQ. They showed you their entire playbook because they care about the future of BBQ and are paying it forward. To the Abercrombie family, thank you for showcasing the best of small-town America. And when the next Texas Top 50 list comes out, I hope you rock the BBQ world.
I will admit I haven’t seen all of your videos, but I’d be surprised if any were better than this. It was EASY to sit and watch for 50 minutes and I was bummed when it was over. Well done, sir!!!
I'm glad these boys aren't trying to hide anything. Making BBQ isn't about secret rub n glazes. I've been doing it for years, and I still mess things up. Time, temp, feel, are the most important. Keeping things consistent. What a great family , and I'm going to make those cookies.
This video turned out awesome Al.. you are gunna break the internet with this one. It was such a good time working with you and Nick. Cooper, Caleb, coach, and the team were all great people to meet.. Anyone watching should definitely make the trip to Bar-A-BBQ and experience their great bbq.. thanks again for inviting me to help yall with this!!.🇨🇱
Thanks, Randy. It was so fun working (and hanging out) with you on this shoot. I'm really proud of what we all created here. Thanks for your help and your friendship sir!
I love this. No secrets, just wham bam this is how we season and smoke. I have learned so much on my journey to be a backyard pitmaster. Matt Pittman and Jirby from Goldees have really helped me a lot get better and better and this guy is no different. Hope he has tons of success.
You're spot on, Justin - it's the generosity of guys like Cooper, Matt and Jonny (and if you watch my other I Got Schooled videos Barrett Black, Harry Soo, Winnie Yee, James Mack and more) that make the BBQ community so special.
@@BehindTheFoodTVyou are absolutely right. The bbq community is so special. The genuiness of the people to open bout their methods how they are willing to show you everything that has made them successful. I love all the I Got Schooled videos! Ive learned a lot from each of them. The fact that each and every one of them allowed you to post videos about the ins and outs speaks volume about them as a person. They really want you so succeed as well.
Thanks for the kind words! I've actually got a series of these, many with families highlighted. You can watch them all here: ua-cam.com/video/TnDHqMCQlI4/v-deo.html
Cooper and everyone were so generous with their time and experience. It's no wonder why they are so successful and deserve all the praise they garner. I wish I could go there someday and try their bbq and have a beer with Coach.
Cooper is as humble as they come, always giving credit to those that he learned from and those that help him. This is one of the many things that will guarantee his long term success. He has assembled a fantastic team combining family and friends that work their butts off to help him. I wish him the best, he certainly deserves it.
I absolutely loved this video. Thank you for sharing the Abercrombie’s story of family, community, and how their BBQ story came to life. I love Coach’s message about selflessness and focusing on the kiddos and how important that is. This family has such a sense of humble competence and I love how simple they keep things to make an excellent meal.
Fantastic video and fantastic family. This is just 50 minutes of joy. If I come to Texas this will definately be on my list. And kudos to the new haircut :D
I just want to say from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!! … Thank you for sharing how you do what you do. I had been at a loss for a glaze to finish my ribs and today after carefully watching this video and taking notes, i successfully made some of the best ribs to ever come out of my smoker. God bless!
This brother is literally the most honest Pitt boss. It really is simple. It's all about temperature control and patience. Not spices or rubs. Love it.
A true representation of Texas families the kindness and thoughtfulness and the BS from Dad man I can't tell you how many times in my life these type of stories and experiences everything was perfect even the smoking but now I'm hungry heading to Kroger's their ribs are on sale thank you for sharing also if I'm ever there tell coach I'll be seeing him I wondering if it will be a Lonestar longneck of course
Love the new look Al! Spent lots of time in Montgomery and Conroe glad to see them featured. Also love reading the comments and your replies of class to crass!
This video was incredible. I'd love to fly down to Montgomery TX and try it. So glad you guys got to go down there. Y'all did an excellent job with the production.
I lived in Montgomery for 12 years and it is a beautiful place. What makes it beautiful is the people, the community, and then the surroundings. Montgomery is an amazing place to raise a family and to create a feeling of belonging. God bless y’all! Much love ❤️🇨🇱
I didn't even know Montgomery existed before learning about Bar-A-BBQ. It was an amazing discovery - and you're right the people and community are incredible. I hope if you go back to visit you'll stop in and see the Abercrombies and tell them hello from me!
Great video. This is the second one I have seen featuring them.. They seem like a great, fun and humble family. Would love to try their food. Thanks for sharing Al.....
Great interviews and the explanation of everything including glaze and cookies amazing! Wish I had the magic touch like he does but it comes over time!
There are many BBQ channels on UA-cam, I only subscribe to Eat More Vagans! I love your channel, keep up the great work this video is a game changer. Completely different than how we are use to doing it. I will change the way I smoke now! It's amazing how humble they are to give out their secrets like that. The most important thing I learned is Love what you do! Amazing
Hands Down The Best BBQ Video Ever! Thanks For Everything You've Done Putting This Outstanding Tutorial Out Here For Everyone To Enjoy And Learn From ❤
Gonna try them all. Thanks guys. Even with their knowledge. As a long time pitcooker. I know. Its not easy to duplicate. Cant fake experience. Especially with offset cooking. Really one of favorite videos
Very, very well done. Interesting, informative, clean and to the point. Revealed the greatness of America and an American family. Heartwarming, indeed.
Great video Al! Man, Cooper would be clowning on me too since i wear heat gloves haha. This is my second video of Bar-A BBQ video and this was very well done and entertaining, the 50 mins flew by
Love it!! My stomach is GRUMBLING and my mouth is watering!! Thank you much for sharing your BBQ!!!! I was just throwing 2 racks of baby backs when i found this video. Made your sauce and trying your method now.
Hi. Just found your channel. I also JUST got back from taking my motorcycle from Homestead FL to Las Cruces NM, stopping at a number of BBQ spots on my way there and back. Didn't get the access from most of the stops that you did, but was a great time. Kudos
@@BehindTheFoodTV Hard to choose, but gonna say Terry Black's in Lockhart. First warm reception I got, but Burnt Bean and Rudy's in Las Cruces are RIGHT there
4:15 I am pleasantly pleased to hear the mention of no carbs and carnivore. Good that more people are aware of the dangers of carbs at least we have a choice to eat it or not. A thank you to Mr. Cooper Abercrombie for sharing your recipe you rock. 😁
Hey Al, can't tell you how many times ive watched this video, these guys are just great! What a family.. I wanna go eat there and drink a beer with coach. But, how did Cooper season the brisket?
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Brisket wasn’t one of the things he showed me, we just talked about it because they went in while we were filming - and I kept it because it was so interested! I’m pretty sure he seasons them like the beef ribs, but I can’t be sure.
Great show! My wife and I are planning a trip down there this week. A question though, I don't have a warmer, so am wondering how to finish with success? I want the glazes and tallow, etc. to be incorporated.
Thanks! Say hi to the team for me and make sure you have a beer with Coach for me! The easy answer is here: emv4.me/vevorwarmer - the harder answer is that most home ovens can be recalibrated - look it up in your manual or Google it. You just set the offset to be 20°F off so it's actually 150°F when the oven thinks it's 170°F. But trust me get the warmer - it changes BBQ so much not having to stay up all night that you'll find yourself happily making tomorrow's dinner tonight all the time!
Thanks Billy! If I remember correctly they run their holding oven at 145F. I have been running mine at 150F FWIW. BTW - did you see I made another one of these I Got Schooled videos that dropped on Friday?
need a bit of colour on your scalp my friend Wow, what an amazing place to be able to visit and learn from - and the humbleness of them all Looking forward to watching you try their way of making amazing flavourful goodness
Oh trust me after 3 days in the Texas sun I took some color home with me! And yes this was a trip that had a huge impact on me - both the people and the food.
Al, what a great video. You just get better and better. Looks like a great family restaurant and team. I'm learning so much from your videos. By the way, you are looking sporty. Great look for you. 😇😋👍
Hey AL I've been a longtime Subscriber through a mutual friend A.K.A Dash lol 😂. I've to say this video is off the charts ...well done buddy. Cheers 🍻....from Trinidad & Tobago 🇹🇹
Hi Stephen! I just talked to Dash the other day. Thanks for the kind words. We plan to make lots of these going forward if we can keep finding sponsors for them. They really are the videos I’m proudest of!
I love to cook and only wish I could have a setup like that but it makes me want to spend the money to invest in a good smoker and make my backyard the talk of the community.. Great Video...Keep it up
Damn fine video. Great to see a family business with so much love and care for the food they make and for their surrounding community. Makes me miss Texas.
Montgomery is a chill little town, just up the road from Conroe, and far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Houston. Wish I still had my deer lease 20 miles from there. Great vid, looks like a good reason to take an hour trip back to Montgomery.
Al, Great video! Can’t wait to see you recreate it! That “cold smoke” time may make a difference, but you should test it for comparison. It is amazing they have time for that at a restaurant. No more red hair! So the whole red color scheme is now gone! Keep up the great content!👍
Thanks! And definitely go check them out and tell them you heard about them on the show. I know they will appreciate knowing you saw the background and decided to stop in!
That was one awesome video. Nice work and I will definitely be trying some of these techniques. Keep it simple. Use good protein and good fires. Sounds too easy...... keep the great videos coming.

Wish I still had my deer lease 20 miles from there. Great vid, looks like a good reason to take an hour trip back to Montgomery.
Wow thanks for the tips, crazy how the clean blue smoke was pretty much debunked.
I learn so many things making these videos. Did you see the one that I dropped this morning? Even more great nuggets!
Al,
Great video! Can’t wait to see you recreate it! That “cold smoke” time may make a difference, but you should test it for comparison. It is amazing they have time for that at a restaurant.
No more red hair! So the whole red color scheme is now gone!
Keep up the great content!👍
Thanks Ben! I can tell you the cold smoke is a game changer. Video coming soon!
This is one of your best videos yet. I'm definitely going to try them out. They're only 45 minutes away from me.
Thanks! And definitely go check them out and tell them you heard about them on the show. I know they will appreciate knowing you saw the background and decided to stop in!
I came when it was the trailer and now the shop, both great. Cam,e from the UK and loved it. Great team there
I'm jealous - I wish I could have met them before it blew up. These are some amazing folks!
Grew up going to school with Cooper in Montgomery, love to see it!
@@williamnemeth9122 was he always this cool?
@@BehindTheFoodTV everyone loved him. Heard madscientistbbq reference him and was thinking I know that place!
That was one awesome video. Nice work and I will definitely be trying some of these techniques. Keep it simple. Use good protein and good fires. Sounds too easy...... keep the great videos coming.
Thanks Keith!
This guy is quintessential America! I'm proud for him!
So well said, Perry!
200 miles from me…road trip! Great video and success story. Good luck to a long successful business!!

I now have a reason to go to Texas and say I need a beer with Coach!
Yes! And tell him Al sent you!
I'm in West Haven Ct. When I get to Texas I'll be there, Thank you, it's refreshing without egos.
You should definitely go! Have you been to HooDoo Brown BBQ in Ridgefield?
