What to expect at a barbecue restaurant
American barbecue means meat cooked low and slow over wood smoke, and every region has its own rules. Central Texas is about beef brisket with a simple salt-and-pepper rub; Kansas City does a bit of everything with a thick sweet sauce; Memphis is known for ribs, wet or dry; and the Carolinas are pork country, with vinegar or mustard sauces.
What to order
- Brisket – ask for “moist” (fatty) or “lean” cuts
- Pork ribs – spare ribs or baby backs
- Pulled pork – often served as a sandwich
- Burnt ends – a Kansas City specialty
Good to know
- Arrive early – popular items often sell out before closing time.
- Ordering by the pound and sharing is usually the best value for groups.
- Many places only open a few days a week; check the hours before driving out.
