Recipe By : Mike Moore, Aguanga, California
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Grilling

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 can beer -- flat
1 cup beef stock
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup onion -- chopped
1/2 stick butter
2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons good quality hot sauce
2 tablespoons dry rub

Combine all ingredients in a nonreactive saucepan. Simmer until onions are
tender and translucent.

COOKS NOTES: Butter! No substititute. Broth is an important ingredient to
the mop. For brisket he uses beef broth, for chicken he uses chicken stock
he makes himself from the backs and tails he cuts away when preparing
chicken. He also incorporates the spices from the rub to maintain the same
balances of flavors.

Texas Grilling; Story about "Texas" Mike Moore of Aguanga: "Moore is
talking about the kind of barbecue that takes at least 12 hours to make a
brisket 'so good you don't need sauce.' Born in Laredo, Texas, Moore had
his own barbecue restaurant in Austin, Texas, before moving to Oceanside
nine years ago and eventually settling in Aguanga. He caters parties and
takes part in barbecue cook-offs, often winning awards for his efforts."
