Wow, I'm surprised to see many familiar places on that list!
One of my cigar chat buddies recently mentioned Ridgeway, specifically during a blue cheese discussion. The Big Bob Gibsons trophy part had me literally laughing out loud (we ordered their baked potatoes when we went, and looooved them) I had a similar experience at Rendezvous as your first trip, and when she went with her friends last year, it mirrored mine. I'm glad you found out they actually can make edible food. Central is an interesting place. I went to the one on Central (I think there are 3 locations?) with a coworker, and we loved it. I sent another coworker later, and then a family friend. They both said it was the words BBQ they had ever had. Mostly, I'm impressed you could eat that much Que. I sure love making it, but meal after meal just isn't that exciting to me. Glad you had a safe trip! Thanks for the fantastic post. |

I understand the "after taking one bite" syndrome where everything else in the world ceases to exist because it tastes so damn good. They are rare, unexpected moments, meant to be cherished and savored. Now that I understand how good it REALLY was, I'm glad you didn't try to take a picture.

Outstanding BBQ crawl!
Just texted my nephew Glenn (Gatordawg here) in Jackson, TN that I expect to go to Helen's the next time we're in TN. I've been to Martin's, Puckett's, the Rendezvous and Central BBQ but would love to check out all the others mentioned.

I know this is way late, but the image showed up from Due South BBQ in Christiansburg, Virginia. It was hiding in the cloud somewhere.
The smoked potatoes were outstanding. I did finish the pulled pork we picked up to take home. I will say that it was some of the worst pulled pork that I ever had. Lots and lots of fat. Huge blobs of fat mixed in with the pork, I'm talking tablespoon size. My daughter and wife were disgusted. I thought it couldn't be that bad and made myself a bowl. It was that bad.
