<human>:  What are the tricks to making great tasting barbecue?
<bot>: 
1. Start with high-quality ingredients; the better the quality of the meat the better the flavor of your barbecue.
2. Use a combination of subtle herbs and spices to complement the meat.
3. Consider adding various marinades to the meat to create more depth of flavor.
4. Keep the temperature low and slow when cooking with a smoker or charcoal/wood fired barbecue.
5. Be aware of how much smoke to use; too much can make the food taste bitter.
6. Add layers of flavor with caramalization techniques like glazing & basting.
7. Let the meat rest for at least 20 minutes before slicing or serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
8. Garnish with fresh herbs and finishing sauces or glazes to bring together all of your flavors.
