In honor of places that we know we could eat without being interupted by Kerry... Please post your favorite BBQ joint, where it is and what your favorite thing is at that place...
Goode Company is good, but not even the best in the area.
Try the place with the pink pig sign on the east side of Voss near San Felipe. The Swinging Door north of Richmond (Texas not the street) is great though late at night their ribs get a bit tough. For ribs try the place in old Sugar Land on HWY. 90. South side and I think the only sign says Bar-B-Que.

LOL - I'll vote for a Backyard BBQ any ol' day as long as the recipe comes from the South.
No offense to the Northerners. The south just has more spice. :o)
We just had this very argument last night in Burlington!
NC people, get over here and defend our state!
In 1969, we moved from suburban New Jersey to Mobile, Alabama.
On the way south, we stopped in Spartanburg, SC to visit friends. They said we were having barbecue for dinner. I expected them to fire up the grille and cook something.
Instead, we hopped in the car and went to - to this day I cannot remember the name of the place - and bought soft hamburger buns and containers of... barbecue?
It was unforgettable!
Oh. My favorite? Well, the one I can remember is Jimbos in Lakeland, Florida.
A lot has changed, especially downtown.
I am getting close to heading there to visit family and will probably be hitting a couple of the old haunts to get some good food, Central Illinois style.
Sure, if you want it BBQed thats No Problem for the cooks.
Libertina's House, tomorrow, Puget Sound FReepers and Jim Robinson family! ;) Par-TAY!
Jack's Stack in Kansas City. Burnt ends. Barbecued Prime Rib Ribs, fries, coleslaw, beans, cheesy corn. And ice cold draft unfiltered wheat beer. It just don't get any better than that.
"New Zion Missionary Baptist Church, Huntsville Texas. All proceeds go to support the church."
This is only a few miles from my house.
It is good.
Are you from Huntsville?
If not how did you find this great place.
yeah yeah yeah.... I only know what I know, but thanks for the suggestion!
I'm a NC BBQ fan. But I confess to sneaking over the southern border to Maurice's BBQ in Columbia. MMMMMM.
I think you mean Lewis Grizzard, columnist?? He died didn't he?
If you are ever in Western North Carolina, go to Waynesville for great BBQ...BIG MOUNTAIN BBQ
Get the handpulled BBQ sandwich and use their homemade sauce..called Big Mtn hot sauce...YUMMMY
Started by a Republican activist, the late Lee Atwater..
Stay away from their vineger sauce. It is the worst I have ever tasted. The other sauces are fine.

Did anyone tell you that you have the best handle on FR?
Old South BBQ; Smyrna, GA
Thanks for those recommendations. I'll check them out.

You don't have to be satisfied with Carsons in Chicago! Try the Twin Anchor on the Near North Side or Robinsons on the South side. Many years ago when Mike Royko had a barbeque cookoff in Grant Park, Mr. Robinson won. His ribs are still great!
TDB
Even try to get a Super Bowl order there? Order 2 days in advance and show up 2 hours early.
It's 2 miles from me! :)
