1. Iron Works: had the beef ribs. quite good but if you're looking for falling-off-the-bone meat, they aren't that. I tried their regular sauce and at first didn't really care for it but the more I ate, the better it tasted so I ended up taking a jar home. Their hot sauce wasn't hot at all - wonder if they misfilled the bottles. I would definitely go back

2. Salt Lick: had to settle for the airport location. The brisket sandwich was good. Nice change from the usual airport fare but as a BBQ joint, hmm.

going on a BBQ pilgrimage to KC next month. Can't wait!! My plans are Bryant's, Fiorella's, Gates and Oklahoma Joe's across the river.
