    Hi! I'm Harry Soo, a Grand Champion pitmaster from in Diamond Bar, near Los Angeles. Welcome to my vlogs, BBQ product reviews, travel & lifestyle videos, BBQ contests, classes, as well as interviews and stories.
    On weekdays, I'm an IT nerd living a Dilbertesque existence in a fabric covered cubicle in downtown LA. I'm the head tour guide for a team of IT project managers who build datacenters, networks, servers, and infrastructure that helps bring tap water to 300 cities and 20 million residents in SoCal.
    On weekends, I come alive as a pitmaster, competitor, and BBQ instructor. You've seen me on BBQ Pitmasters, Food Network, Chopped Grill Masters, Smoked, Cutthroat Kitchen, and local TV in California. My shtick is I've used a humble 18-inch Weber Smokey Mountain smoker to win 100+ first places and 1st place USA in the Kansas City BBQ Society (KCBS) awards including best chicken, brisket, and sirloin; and I've won over 30 Grand Championships. I've personally taught 250+ classes and trained 4,000+ pitmasters in small hands-on dozen student classes in the US, Sydney, Perth, London, Kuala Lumpur, Ireland, Germany, Mexico, Canada, and Hawaii.
    I get many questions weekly about how to grill and barbecue. Since I started cooking professionally in 2008, I've answered thousands via email, so I decided to post my answers via video to reach a wider audience. I'll do my best to post a video on my channel periodically. I upload vlogs, BBQ product reviews, travel & lifestyle videos, BBQ contests, classes, as well as interviews and stories.

I love your approach of just enjoy the process and there is no right or wrong way to BBQ just have fun!

Entered my first competition and actually followed your process and cooked 2 half chickens, as required for this comp., and came away with a 4th place call. I also followed much of your process for ribs and got a 10th place call. I'm hooked and will definitely be competing again. Thank you for sharing the bbq love.

In my head I said why in the world would I teach someone to replace me? That's crazy! He explained, if your the real deal and sure of your abilities, you will go places. I cant promote you if I cant replace you. A year later I was promoted. Harry you are going places far beyond your expectations. Thank you! God bless! 🤠👍

    Thanks, Harry. Going to be switching up my method on chicken and will be going with this style. I won't be cooking Houston Rodeo, but other IBCA and Montgomery County Cook-Off, so if you're ever around stop in at Bear Flag BBQ's booth and we'll hook you up with Slap Yo Daddy Style BBQ!

  • @devinthomas4866
    @devinthomas4866 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    One important thing about an IBCA contest.
    The judges will only have a plastic knife and fork to get the piece of chicken they want.
    If the skin is even a lil tough, meat is tight, not very very tender, fork breaks, they will struggle to get a sample and your score will suffer.
    A really handy practice tip is this, cook a chicken ( whole or half) just like this, then have a couple family members or friends " sample" it with only plastic fork and knife.
    You will appreciate how tender it must be for them to sample it easily.
    We routinely tell each other that the chicken we ate an hour after we turned in our entry is always perfect.
    Simply my experience with IBCA

    Love watching harry bbq..just a tip for harry, most fridges you can reverse how the door opens, might be easier to access your bbq fridge that way..usually some plastic plugs on the top of the door you remove and swap the hinge..not all fridges have them though

    • @SlapYoDaddyBBQ
      @SlapYoDaddyBBQ  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the tip. I actually put my groceries on top of the washer instead on the floor to sort them before I put them in my laundry room fridge so it works better with L to R opening as I can have the door open while I transfer meat and groceries from the top of the washer to the fridge. Makes sense?.

    Hey Harry. You recommend 1% salt by weight to your brine/injection. When making a rub, do you have a recommendation when it comes to a spicy component (i.e. cayenne) per weight of overall rub? And another question if you don't mind, do you ever use grill grates will cooking at home or only in competition? Thanks!!

    • @SlapYoDaddyBBQ
      @SlapYoDaddyBBQ  4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      1% to season food not when making a brine. You add cayenne to taste as all cayenne has different heat when raw and when cooked. There is no shortcut to the 10,000 hours I've invested to show you in 5 minutes how my 1st place entry recipe looks like. Lots of folks do not realize that Coca Cola is showing a video of how the secret recipe for Coca Cola looks like! Enjoy!

    It's been 10 months since this was posted and I JUST watched it today and discovered that Harry's rubs are available in Winnipeg under the Jealous Devil brand. It's always been an ordeal ordering such things from the USA and now I can just trundle down to the store and pick me some up. I checked and LUXE BBQ carries all the Jealous Devil products including the charcoal. I plan to get a Weber 22" charcoal grill this year and start making some more tasty things than I have been able to with my gas grill.

    Gosh Harry, that looks delicious!! Would you by chance have a recipe for a mustard based sauce (or finishing sauce) for ribs? Something maybe more unique than the standard Carolina Gold recipes? One of my favorites (being from Texas) is the Saltlick’s original sauce but I have no idea how they make it. Any links or info would be appreciated. Maybe you sell something in that category? I definitely want to try some of your rubs.
