Steve Cook, Erin O’Shea and Michael Solomonov, the team behind Percy Street Barbecue, recently took a journey to Texas to pick up their meat smokers and, more importantly, research the BBQ craft for their forthcoming joint at 900 South. Filmmaker Chandler Kaufman has put together a beautiful HD feature on the trip. It’s not embeddable just yet, but hop over to Vimeo to check it out.
UPDATE: Video is now embeddable. Check it out after the jump.

Much more on the spot next week; for more right now, peep filmmaker Chandler Kaufman’s feature on the spot. [...]
