Oklahoma barbecue is a mixture of styles blending sweet, tomato based sauces with beef, pork, poultry, and sausage. And while Oklahoma barbecue pulls a little something from its surrounding neighbors, its smoked bologna sausage is unique to this area.

The woods used in Oklahoma are black jack oak (a red oak variety) and post oak (a white oak variety), both of which can be found locally.
