Watch The First Episode Of 'BBQ With Franklin'

"This is a brisket. It comes off the cow."

Austin's own Aaron Franklin of Franklin Barbecue is not taking anything for granted in his new BBQ With Franklin series on KLRU public television. The first episode's just a few days old, and in it, Franklin goes "shopping" for a brisket in the Franklin fridge, explaining the nuances of fatty and lean cuts and the secret to his rub, which is: a "conservative" amount of salt and pepper.
