DickDastardly00 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 That's probably one thing I have yet to have really good of...BBQ. Doesn't really exist around here. Same thing up here, no really good BBQ places, just a few so-so ones. ♪Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery; None but ourselves can free our minds.♫ -Bob Marley, Redemption Song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering you probably wouldnt even know good bbq if you had it, I consider your opinion invalid.

BDII Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Some of the best BBQ places just have a roll of paper towels on the table. #passthewetwipes Gotta have picnic tables and saw dust on the floor.

I Donated thefultonhow Posted March 28, 2019 I Donated Share Posted March 28, 2019 Yeah. tough find in the northeast. There are two or three noteworthy places in all of CT. None of which are great. Mission BBQ any good?It's okay. It's the Chipotle of BBQ. Don't get me wrong, I love a good Chipotle burrito, but the local non chain Mexican place is more "authentic" and "gourmet," whatever those words actually mean.

Dishwasher Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Yasssssss I chaperoned a school trip out in your neck of the woods. Brought back BBQ from Sawmill BBQ in East St. Louis (Google Maps says "Located in: Cahokia RV Parque" ) to the hotel. Best BBQ I have had so far. Second best was Shotgun Pete's BBQ Shack, in Columbia, MO on a cross-country drive. Unfortunately it has since closed. Man, you are a ballsy man. East STL has strip clubs, shootings, and car jackings. I don't go there, ever. It's a den of villany, and outlaws. Cahokia is a little further out, and is a nice day trip for the Cahokian Native American museum. For whatever reason these guys built some big hills, and that's what makes southern Illinois special. In the past ten years the BBQ scene in St. Louis (MO side) has exploded, tons of great options. Sugarfire, Pappy's, Salt and Smoke, etc. Still Memphis has the best BBQ I've ever experienced. Specifically Corky's, and Charlie Vergas' Rendezvous. Dry rub amazingness. Brought to you by Pfizer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dishwasher Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Memphis bbq is the best I've had. I still buy my bbq sauce online from central. I get my dry rub from central or rendezvous. Memphis food scene is awesome.It ruined me for all other que! Rendezvous is freaking delicious. Memphis is the shit.

It's a den of villany, and outlaws. I did feel a little conspicuous in the almost-new van with the priave school logo on the side.

Please only comment on things you are knowledgeable of... things like loneliness, asshattery, and bad food. We have a Jimmy Macs and Dicky's BBQ Pit, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that both are basically, well, crap. And your opinion on BBQ is just as invalid as mine (by your own admission). The best I've had around where I work is Warthog BBQ, it was ok, better than the two mentioned above. What we do have here is really damn good seafood. ♪Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery; None but ourselves can free our minds.♫ -Bob Marley, Redemption Song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't know WA then, we are perhaps known more for our Oysters, rockfish, shellfish and yes, crab too then Salmon. Although we are known plenty for that too.

Although we are known plenty for that too. BTW Eta's in Seattle serves some of the best Crab Cakes in the country, they are on many top 10 list for seafood including crab cakes.Sorry, but when you go to a seafood restaurant, you're never going to see Seattle-style crab cakes. There's a reason why you see Maryland-style crab cakes in many restaurants nationwide. Side note: I always laugh when I walk into a big chain restaurant around here and see Maryland-style crabcakes on the menu. You want a good crab cake, you don't go to a chain. You go to a local place. Pappas', about half an hour away from me, has an attached fish market and the best crab cakes I have ever had. They're usually not my go-to when I eat seafood, but they were amazing. I don't even know how they hold together with so little filler. Plus, y'all don't have Old Bay, so I know you don't take your crabs seriously. I'm sure you have oysters and shrimp. That's all well and good. But so do we. Maryland actually gives tax credits for oyster floats on the Chesapeake. The lobsters, on the other hand, I will leave to New England. I know when another region outclasses us in particular types of seafood. I visited Maine as a kid, and the McDonald's there have McLobster Rolls.

jasejase Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Mclobster is no joke. Fresh lobster! On a similar note, I'm kona Hawaii, mcdonalds serves 100% kona coffee. That's like $50 a pound around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously MO doesn’t have shit for seafood, but the fried Walleye and Catfish game is on point. Some of the best seafood I’ve had has been in Martha’s Vineyard, but New Orleans deserves an honorable mention as well.

jasejase Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Living in the northeast, I think we're spoiled with decent seafood and Italian. I will say that the best seafood I've had, has likely been on vacation in the Caribbean or HI. When you're surrounded by water, fish is abundant. !
