Hate to bust anyone's bubble, but REAL barbeque ain't cooked on grills that you can buy at Walmart or Home Depot. Nor is it smoked with pellets, shavings, or pressed wood brisquettes......and it's not cooked using propane or electricity. Also, it's mostly a south of the Mason-Dixon line thing...........sorry Yankees.
It is cooked on a pit, over a bed of hardwood coals, low and slow, usually by old men who've been doing it for so long that they could do it blindfolded. Here in my part of the world, in the western part of Kentucky, just north of the Tennessee line, that means pork shoulders, cooked for about 16 hours, and the served pulled. Very little seasoning goes on the shoulders to begin with, usually they are mopped with a sauce while they're cooked, and served sauce on the side. Most places also cook chickens and ribs. I do like brisket, but that's a Texas innovation, and was not originally cooked here.
Some places also cook mutton, and I like good mutton, but I have found few places that really know how to do it right.

JamesJr,
Do you & your friends BBQ whole feral pigs in your area?? = My pit is made out of an old 500 gallon butane tank (mounted on a "junked" boat trailer chassis). In northeast TX, we use green hickory, peach-tree or pecan wood for BBQ. (I personally don't care for the taste of mesquite cooked food, other than beef brisket.)
Personally, when I have taken feral pigs up to 60-75 pounds, they go onto the pit whole.
MOST NE Texans BBQ a lot more pork & poultry than we do beef. - I suspect that that tradition has to do with most of "the old families" having come to TX from AL, the Carolinas, LA, GA & MS.

yours, tex i suspect mesquite flavored meat is an acquired taste, unlike oak and hickory that many of us grew up with.

GUS,
In south TX, where I now reside after retiring from the Army, MESQUITE & OAK seem to be the THE two woods used for BBQ. = I've not, after a total of 14 years living here (I was here for 3 years about 2 decades ago & was stationed at Ft Sam Houston), I've NOT yet "acquired the taste" for mesquite-cooked food. - IMO, mesquite does a TERRIBLE job on chickens, ducks & turkeys & tastes "FUNNY" Imo, pork does OK with split oak in the firebox. (Friends tease me about bringing back a BIG load of green hickory split wood, when we "go home to visit". = A Ford F-250 diesel PU will haul a LOT of .hickory wood.)
Once I have the hickory, I "mix it in" with well-seasoned split oak, which works OK but not as well as ALL hickory or peach-tree wood.. (My "home county" is filled with commercial peach orchards & when the trees quit producing well, they get "taken out" & replaced with new trees.= When I lived up there, I was often "first in line" to cut-up & carry away the discarded peach trees.)
To ME alone, I think nothing is better for BBQing turkeys & hams than green peach wood.
yours, tex

I like mesquite. I use a can of smoker chips when I grill chicken.

What sort of grill?
I have a Weber gas grill and can burn a bag of chips and not taste it in the food.
I am MAGA.
