Finger Lickin' Barbecue by Archie Berwick is an inspiring children's book that uses a love of barbecue as a powerful reminder to embrace who you are. Through a heartfelt story inspired by the author's childhood, readers learn that being true to yourself is far more important than worrying about what others think.
After being told that licking barbecue sauce from his fingers wasn't proper table manners, the young Archie realizes that sometimes it's okay to be different. As the story unfolds, "Finger Lickin' Barbecue" becomes a meaningful metaphor for finding someone—and becoming someone—who is comfortable, confident, and unapologetically authentic.
Beautifully illustrated by Deb Turcio, this uplifting BBQ book delivers a positive message of self-confidence, kindness, and individuality that resonates with readers of all ages. Whether you're looking for a meaningful family read or a thoughtful gift, this charming paperback belongs on every bookshelf.

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
