Where is your favorite BBQ joint?

I haven't tried either one of those, but if I ever get off my ass and get out that way again, I will try to do so. Thanks.

In Priceville, AL there is a nice little bbq resturant right across from the Pilot. Its right next to the Catfish House. I used to laugh at all the lazy fat ass drivers that cry on the CB about eating from the Subway buffet, but wont walk across the street for some awesome bbq...

Bodacious BBQ in Tyler,TX (I-20, Exit 562) was my favorite, but it has bee a long time (years) since I have stopped on the road to eat BBQ.

These days I just wait til I get home for food like that because I don't like spending high prices out on the road for food just so I can eat by myself.

King's BBQ on Kensington St. on the "dark side" of Eustis, Fl.
Mustard based sauce, which you can buy in local grocery stores (if you're lucky) so you can make your own if you want.

Only open Fri, Sat. and Sun. from noon to about 2am.

I use John Boy & Billy grilling sauce to marinate with before cooking. Not bad.
Just got too lazy to make my own.

Woody's at I-45 and Highway 7 in Centerville, TX. Truck parking, fuel at a decent price on the other side of I-45 with more parking and showers. Jerky is a little expensive. The brisket will melt in your mouth.

Arthur Bryants in KCMO. Just south of Truman on Brooklyn.No truck parking(and your truck wouldn't be there when you came out if there was)But if you're ever in the area it would be worth the effort to get there.

Hmmmm . . . lessee . . . my favorite barbecue joint?

Why right there at my house!

Where else?

No one can do barbecue the way I like it better than me, and once I get all the stuff I need at the store, I don't have to go any farther than the grill out on the porch!

I'm here in Calera,ok.BBQ sounds good wonder if theres a bbq place around here or the next town back.I'll be bobtailing to Walmart and look along the way.

 

[Racer X 69]

You Westerners say Bar-B-Que, but, you mean cow. Real Bar-B-Que is in the East, and, it is pig, slow cooked over Hickory coals, seasoned with a vinegar/pepper baste (no sugar) using methods that trap the smoke in the cooking chamber. When it's served it is usually chopped and seasoned again with the vinegar/pepper mixture. A good host will have the same stuff on the table where it becomes known as the "dipping sauce." Sides include hush-puppies, slaw made with that same vinegar/pepper sauce, French fries, or, potato salad, and, a big glass of iced tea. If there is room afterward, an ample helping of peach cobbler, served warm, ala mode is a nice finish.

My favorite spots are Lexington Bar-B-Que in Lexington, NC, Stamey's in Greensboro, NC, and, Hursey's in Burlington, NC.

Cooking good Bar-B-Que is an art form, requiring a pick-up load of dry Hickory wood, 12 hours to kill, and, at least a case of beer, depending on how many helpers volunteer. The girls take care of the trimmings, the men smoke the meat.

No self respecting Southern boy doesn't have a smoker and a fire barrel close at hand.

All of the above stated is true.. and that is why I MISSED A MORTGAGE payment last year.. damn Southern boy was going into fits not having a smoker on hand... can't say it wasn't money well robbed from Peter to pay for the smoker though.. mmmmmmm good vittles!

Wild Child, it's a pleasure to know someone who has their priorities in order.

Sounds good to me, and the trailer mounted cooker looks well suited for the task.

But I must take exception to your comment about us "Westerners", I never said anything about the specific meat du jour.

No one can do barbecue the way I like it better than me, and once I get all the stuff I need at the store, I don't have to go any farther than the grill out on the porch!

But I will get a bit more specific here.

Out "West" we grill just about everything.

Seafood, vegetables, fowl, pork, mutton, elk, venison, and of course, beef (it's what's for dinner).

Also, sometimes we use mesquite instead of hickory, because variety is the spice of life!

The vinegar/pepper baste sounds good, I'm gonna give it a go next time I fire up the grill.

May your tastebuds always be happy!

It's just money, I can make more tomorrow LOL

Ok, I forgot that there is a local BBQ joint to my home 20 that I like. It is the Camp 31 Bar-B-Q in Paris, Ontario. Great ribs and chicken. Pulled pork and brisket is good as well. They Model themselves after southern BBQ joints, which is cool, because to be honest, Canada really lacks these places in a big way. The sweet potato fries they have there are also a welcome change from the standard spud version you see everywhere else.

Now that I have thought of it, I just may have to drag the kids out there for dinner tonight.

 

[lunachic]

Sweet potato fries...........sound yummy..................
