Pop-Up BBQ Legend Is Opening His First Restaurant, and It's a Brisket Wonderland

当烧烤弹出式感觉哑光喇叭打开他奥克兰在接下来的几周里，您可以预料到他的中部德克萨斯州风格的牛ket的餐厅。那个柔软而壮观的干式牛s，在加利福尼亚白橡树上抽16至18个小时，无疑将成为许多客人的主要活动。但是，由于霍恩展示了他的范围和崇敬，还将在磅和三明治中出售许多其他肉American barbecue。

他将在西奥克兰餐厅（称为喇叭烧烤。He’ll make hot links and also beef-and-garlic sausages that pay homage to Texas pitmaster Robert Patillo. On Saturdays, he’ll serve big beef ribs and whole-hog barbecue. Horn and his wife, Nina, will prepare sides like mac and cheese, pit beans, potato salad, collard greens, slaw, and black-eyed peas.

霍恩说：“这是我们共同成长的东西的集合。”“这很自然。我的祖母曾经在地上屠夫和煮猪。我的祖父也会做很多猪肉。小时候，我会吃拉猪肉三明治或热链接三明治。”

That was Horn’s first barbecue influence. When he started smoking his own meat, he went down a rabbit hole as he learned about Texas barbecue. He got really good at making his own barbecue. He started selling meat at a farmers’ market in 2016 and then began doing Bay Area pop-ups. Word spread, and his pop-ups eventually had lines with hundreds of people.

在去年八月的最后一次弹出窗口（在阿拉米达的伏特加酒店1伏特加酒店）中，霍恩和他的妻子意识到他们已经“超越了模特”。他们雇用了更多的员工来切肉并处理这条线，但是当超过500人出现时，没有办法避免等待多个小时。弹出窗口从上午11点开始，一名女子在上午5:30到达排队（她读了一本书以通过时间。）客人在排队时正在烧烤自己的食物并玩棋盘游戏。亚搏电竞霍恩记得与他的妻子谈论的话题如何证明他们的弹出窗口。开设一家餐厅必须是下一步。

And now, at a restaurant in the space that previously housedTanya Holland的红糖厨房, Horn wants to display reminders of how he got here and what matters most to him. There are photos of his early days at the farmers’ market in Tracy. There are also family pictures that include shots of his children hanging out while he smoked meat.

他说他要做什么在角烧烤“bigger than creating great food.” He’s completely aware that he’s a black man who’s taken over the site of what was an iconic black-owned restaurant in a predominantly black neighborhood. He feels a responsibility here. And when Horn says he’s doing this “for the culture,” he also means that he wants to honor all the black pitmasters who came before him, like Kansas City pioneer Henry Perry.

“A lot of these people don’t get the credit they deserve,” Horn says. “A lot of them are forgotten and overlooked. This is about preserving a legacy. It’s paying respect to those who paved the way for me.”

Legacy is something he’s discussed with his friend布莱恩·弗曼（Bryan Furman），被命名为2019年的黑人亚特兰大Pitmaster亚搏电竞食品和美酒亚搏电竞最好的新厨师。霍恩还提到了他最近与查尔斯顿全身偶像进行的精彩对话Rodney Scott，赢得了2018年詹姆斯·比尔德奖的黑人维修区。Howard Conyers,一位黑色火箭科学家，为美国宇航局工作，也是一位强大的维修师，也与霍恩（Horn）交谈。

Horn knows that barbecue can break down barriers. He knows that barbecue is for everyone and that barbecue is a community. He often texts Texas barbecue royalty likeWayne Mueller，谁总是很慷慨。

霍恩（Horn）的两个亲密朋友是洛杉矶烧烤明星，他们也从后院做饭，然后成为弹出式轰动。伯特·巴克曼（Burt Bakman），背后的人特鲁迪的地下烧烤和平板是以色列移民。安德鲁·穆尼兹（AndrewMuñoz）Moo的手工烧烤与他的妻子米歇尔（Michelle）是墨西哥裔美国人的肉类女士。这些伙伴共同是加利福尼亚烧烤的新面孔。

“Barbecue is the great unifier,” Horn says. “Especially when you’re dealing with the climate of America right now, it’s beautiful where you have people from all walks of life coming together. It’s a whole family dynamic. We laugh, we joke. We’re always available to one another. We gather around this fire that drives us, that consumes us.”

2019年的烧烤是关于重写剧本的，这正是Horn计划要做的。他已经在考虑扩大自己的菜单，因为他用牛尾和羊肉玩耍。

他说：“这是烧烤的美丽事物。”“它可以改变。是的，我可以尊重文化和那些在我面前的人。但是，如果您看看烧烤的去向，那是一件美丽的事情，我很高兴能加入其中。”
