Soak your wood for more smoke. Busted! There's a reason they build boats out of wood--wood doesn't absorb water and soaking it prevents smoke.Myth. Cook chicken until the juices run clear. Busted! Pink juice in cooked chicken is due to myoglobin and cytochrome, which may not turn clear until 180°F (which is overcooked).Myth. Marinades will penetrate faster under a vacuum. Busted! When you suck the air out from around the meat, you are creating a vacuum outside the meat and it will suck the juices out of the meat, not in.And he follows it all up with more than 110 tested creative recipes to inspire you to break out of the traditional barbecue box--experiment with new ingredients, techniques, and impressive recipes not covered in other barbecue books, with dishes like Championship Pork Ribs, Pho with Leftover Brisket and Smoked Bone Broth, Real Fried Chicken on a Gas Grill (It's Safe!), The Ultimate Smash Burger, Mussels with Smoked Fettucine, Crawfish on Dirty Rice, Squash Bisque, and Drunken Peaches and Cream.

From acclaimed author Kevin Christopher Snipes comes a moving romance about two star-crossed boys trapped in a millennium-spanning cycle of reincarnation whose only hope of escape may be a price that neither is willing to pay. Perfect for fans of Adam Silvera and Eliot Shrefer!Out and proud, Riley Iverson knows there's nothing more cringe than crushing on a straight boy. But from the moment that the handsome, sporty, and painfully heterosexual Jackson Haines walks into his life, Riley can't help but feel an instant and undeniable connection. Mainly because, as impossible as it seems, Jackson is the spitting image of the boy who's recently appeared in Riley's dreams-dreams set in another time and another place where he and Jackson were desperately in love. At first Riley tries to dismiss the coincidence as a product of his hormone-fueled, overactive imagination, but as his friendship with Jackson deepens into something more, the dreams prove harder to ignore. Especially when Jackson begins having them too. Plunged into increasingly vivid visions of the past, the boys find themselves in various eras scattered throughout history. No matter where or when their dreams take them, though, two things remain constant: Riley and Jackson are always together, and they always die at the end. As it becomes increasingly difficult to view their dreams as anything but warnings, the boys are forced to consider the possibility that their burgeoning relationship might be propelling them headfirst into their own tragic ending. But is it worth staying apart to save their lives if the price is forsaking a love that has defied not only time and space but even death itself?

Set in the turbulent Vietnam era in the All-American city of Buffalo, New York, six girls are condemned to forced labor in the laundry of a Catholic reform school. In 1968 we meet six teens confined at the Good Shepherd-a dark and secretive institution controlled by Sisters of Charity nuns-locked away merely for being gay, pregnant, or simply unruly. Mairin- free-spirited daughter of Irish immigrants, committed to keep her safe from her stepfather. Angela-denounced for her attraction to girls, sent to the nuns for reform, but instead found herself the victim of a predator. Helen-the daughter of intellectuals detained in Communist China, she saw her "temporary" stay at the Good Shepherd stretch into years. Odessa-caught up in a police dragnet over a racial incident, she found the physical and mental toughness to endure her sentence. Denise-sentenced for brawling in a foster home, she dared to dream of a better life. Janice-deeply insecure, she couldn't decide where her loyalty lay-except when it came to her friend Kay, who would never outgrow her childlike dependency. Sister Bernadette-rescued from a dreadful childhood, she owed her loyalty to the Sisters of Charity even as her conscience weighed on her. Wayward Girls is a haunting but thrilling tale of hope, solidarity, and the enduring strength of young women who find the courage to break free and find redemption...and justice. "Wayward girls is all about the power of female bonds...this isn't just a moment in time-it's a cautionary tale."-Jodi Picoult, New York Times bestselling author of By Any Other Name
