For the Love of Meat is a documentary that focuses on folks around the country that take their BBQ very, very seriously. The movie highlights these pit masters, such as Tootsie Tomanetz of Snow’s BBQ in Lexington and Aaron Franklin of Franklin Barbeque in Austin, as they share the secrets behind their mouthwatering briskets, sausage, smoked meats, rubs and sauces.
