I'm in SW Florida and a member o a car club. We like to all get in a line and drive somewhere and nothing would be finer than to find a good BBQ place. I mean top notch BBQ. Anyone know of a place worthy of a long drive???

I haven't been in there, just smelled it. In Apollo Beach there is a relatively new place, hole in the wall in a little strip mall, right next door to Apollo Beach diner. It is also beside my produce co-op, so I'm there ~once a week. Keep thinking I'd get some to go, because the whole parking lot smells so good. They have a big smoker on a trailer, initially parking it right in the parking lot, but now have it back behind the building. I can't vouch for the food, but the smells are worthwhile.

Smokin' D's in St. Augustine
Get there early because they can sell out. Outdoor seating only.
Kay's Real Pit Bar-B-Q near Cocoa Beach
Sit down restaurant, plenty of parking for a group of cars.
Big Nick's in Fort Myers
Their building used to be an ice cream stand, so no indoor seating, and the parking lot is tiny. There's a public park across the street
