I want to make sure it is clear that I am an equal opportunity barbecue fanatic. Texas BBQ is the best, hands down. But, I love pretty much any style of smoked meats, including this delicious "whole hog" sandwich from Martin's BBQ Joint in downtown Nashville. They do it up right there in the deep …

So I didn't get to eat it this week, but the best beef rib I've ever eaten was a few months ago at a joint affectionately known as the "cathedral of smoke", Louie Mueller BBQ in Taylor. There are so many reasons why Louie Mueller is ranked number 5 in the newly-released Texas Monthly BBQ …

City Meat Market – Giddings
