Mmmm have to remember that. Your location made me think of another BBQ joint I ate at and enjoyed: Luther's BBQ in Houston. Their smoked ham BBQ sandwich is something that is hard to come by at many places, and was great.

I think that sauce helped get me out of trouble also. I was traveling in South Texas, near Brownsville, where I got stopped at one of those immigration checkpoints they have about 50 miles inland. They were very suspicious for some reason and searched the whole car. When he got to my luggage and saw the bottles of Luther's BBQ he smiled and things went better after that!
I found out about Luther's from a tip from an ex-boss who lived in Houston for a time.

There was another awesome place in Bessemmer, AL , I wish I wrote some of these down!! ....

In Warner Robins, GA found two decent places:
Pomo's, on Rte 247. Another was in a gas station on the west end of town, I don't know if it has a name. Both were fantastic, and had BBQ with that "mustardy" taste to it, I did not know to associate that flavor with Georgia. I liked it!

My heart is still with the Dinosaur BBQ in Rochester & Syracuse! Try Center Street Smokehouse in Batavia, NY if you are up this way, also.

The way they crank out moist, perfect brisket at Goode Co. is simply a marvel of great barbecue. That said, however, everything else there rules, too -- the sides, the chicken, ham, turkey, duck, ribs, pork sausage, and, possibly my favorite of everything, the Czech sausage. You won't be disappointed.
