You might think barbecue is all about tradition, about doing things the way they used to be done. But new ingredients, creative methods, and fresh faces have always found their way into one of this country’s oldest cuisines. From Savannah to Seattle, the most recent wave of pitmasters preach the gospel of all-wood cooking, just like barbecue’s earliest practitioners. But in many ways they act more like chefs than grizzled veterans. Heritage hogs are showing up on menus. Everything is homemade, down to the pickles. Well-marbled Prime has replaced leaner Select as the preferred grade of brisket. These neotraditionalists are young—most are under 40—yet they’ve shown plenty of wisdom, knowing which customs to heed and which to throw out with the overdressed slaw. Here, we celebrate the best in barbecue today
We made it! You got past PART 1: THE LOCATION and PART 2: THE FOOD. Hopefully you’ve had as much fun reading about the new Home Team BBQ as I did documenting almost every aspect of what they have to offer. I say ‘almost’ because I saved my favorite of the bunch, THE COCKTAILS. If you’ve followed along Holy City Handcraft on Instagram, you know probably could have guessed that.
After our readers helped 10Best and Sandwich America pick their favorite iconic sandwiches in states around the country, we asked you to share photos of your perfect sandwich! We received entries from all across the country – from restaurants, delis and individuals – and we’ve narrowed it down to our 10 favorites. Scroll through our #10BestSandwich winners below (presented in no particular order), but be warned, they might make you hungry!
