Hometown Bar-B-Que in Brooklyn, New York
Are you shocked to find all these New York joints on the list? The Big Apple has great barbecue, which is now easier to find. It is not all that rare to stumble upon smoke rings and wood stacks that you will find in the most authentic laces. Hometown Bar-B-Que is located close to Red Hook in Brooklyn and offers space for live musicians. If you ask us, the biggest secret on the menu is the smoked lamb. The bread crusted with lamb belly and topped with pickled carrots and daikon make the trip worth it. You will find a lot of cultural nods, such as the Jamaican jerk spareribs! We bet that your senses will be delighted.

Jones Bar-B-Q in Kansas City, Kansas
We can see why anyone would be skeptical of a pit that became famous off the TV. However, the low-key operation by Deborah “Shorty” and Mary “Little” Jones deserves all the appraise that they have received after they appeared in Queer Eye. They started to “cue at the knee of their father.” Now, they are the standard-bearers of barbecue traditions in the family. In this day and age, the Kansas City barbecue scene makes use of propane-assisted commercial pits. The sisters have not followed suit and keep burning logs in the old locker smoker in their cinder block shack parking lot. There are many things to be admired about their messy and saucy plates. For one thing, we like that they do not trim the meat into perfect cuts and instead use tangy sauce and thick smoke to summon a primal taste from the burnt ends. You should go there early since they sell out as early as 15 minutes after they open at 11 AM!
