Sometime between now and then, he and I are going to drive cross-country on a BBQ tour. We'll start and end in Seattle, but we intend to hit all of the areas of the country famous for BBQ: Texas, Louisiana, the rest of the South, North Carolina, Memphis, Chicago, and Kansas City. We're still planning the specifics, and here's where all y'all come in: I would love to know THE places to go in your part of the country (assuming it's one I mentioned above - this will be almost entirely SOUTH of the Mason-Dixon line) for outstanding BBQ, whether they're famous or a hole-in-the-wall. We'll stay away from big chains for the most part (we have Famous Dave's up here), unless it is a local/regional one with a good local reputation. Thanks in advance for sharing!
