The Wikipedia English definition of Barbecue:  Barbecue (or barbeque) is a cooking method, a style of food, a name for a meal, and a call for a gathering at which this type of food is cooked and served.

The average definition for BBQ doesn’t describe TEXAS CRAFT BBQ, so I enhanced my definition just a little over two years ago.

I started using the term “Craft BBQ” a few years ago because it signifies a special kind of barbecue for me. A Craft BBQ Pitmaster takes extra care when hand selecting only the best meats. rubs, spices, and prepares their BBQ with love and passion. In most cases they prepare their own rubs and custom spices. Some “Craft BBQ” Pitmasters only use salt and pepper for a rub because they believe using anything else is sac-religious.  They possess so much passion about their BBQ! They make sure every element is executed to perfection before the customer receives it and takes their first bite.

DALLAS (March 29, 2018) – Pei Wei Asian Kitchen recently launched a revolutionary Clean-Label Initiative, The Wei Forward™, which embodies the brand’s belief that food should begin with wholesome, fresh ingredients that create bold flavor, and that transparency in ingredients and cooking methods is the best way to empower customers to make smart choices.

In conjunction with The Wei Forward, Pei Wei announced that, by 2020, all artificial colors, flavors and preservatives – dubbed its ‘No Wei List’ – will be removed from its entire menu.

Pei Wei is continuing its promise of cleaning up its entire menu with the release of ingredient statements for three new dishes, bringing the current total of Pei Wei clean-label dishes to six. The three added dishes include:

  • Fried Rice – Fresh, steamed white meat chicken, soy sauce, scallions, egg, red bell peppers, bean sprouts and carrots.
  • Cauliflower Fried Rice – Fresh, steamed white meat chicken, soy sauce, scallions, egg, red bell peppers, bean sprouts, carrots and house-made cauliflower rice.
