Moonlite Inn, Owensboro, KY
The best and most unique of the regional types of BBQ is Western Kentucky. They feature mutton, chopped in a unique sauce. There is also a unique stew/soup called burgoo. It's a little like Brunswick stew, but quite different. We often mail order a lot of the mutton and burgoo from them around holiday time.
Also, am I the only one who has scheduled a layover at MEM just to eat a Neely's Interstate BBQ?
Now I'm hungry
