Here in the St. Louis area we have a few good places. We have chain joints like bandanas an Stumpy's. The Man vs. Food show spotlighted Pappy's Smokehouse. Never been there but it's supposed to be great. Me I go to Stumpy's because it's close and good. What are some out there?
Over on this end of I-70, Gates, (I did his HVAC for 7 years) Bryant's, K.C. Masterpiece, Smokestack all very good. Come on over in the fall for the American Royal BBQ contest, a good time.
I stopped at The Salt Lick in Dripping Springs-Driftwood (Austin) area Texas, their beans sucked, no fries on the place, Brisket was awesome, but that was all.
In Virginia. Allmanns in Fredricksburg used to be really good. The Dixie Pig used to be down on US1 near Alexandria that was awesome but is gone now. Here in Fla. I like mine the best
I use to like several but about 5 years ago I was working in
Tysons corner Virginia and drove to
Daves world famous bar b q
I got hooked and ate there 4 of the 5 nights I was there.
Now we have one in Clearwater yee haw
its a 2 hour drive but worth it
they are supposed to build one near me soon
I keep writing them e-mails because I found a perfect spot for one
but they keep blowing me off and telling me to go to Clearwater
If con is the opposite of pro
is congress the opposite of progress?
Best one i knew of locally was a place located deep in the hood..looked like a house but inside the 1st floor was all open with tables and a bar to belly up to...no liquor just Q. It then moved to a regular restaurant and the board of health shut them down repeatedly for cooking outdoor for more than 10 days out of the month..owner stressed out and had a heat attack. the community got on the health departments ass because it was basic bullying. its also hearsay the restaurants near his where behind the push of the health department to shut him down...how dare he take there business he is just a old hick from the hood. but now the health department has changed its rules and a restaurant with proper permit can cook outside 365. sorry rant over, i was just pissed over the whole ordeal even though its was 2 yrs ago.
