Yesterday I was talking steakhouses in NYC w a buddy at Jiu Jitsu. I was lamenting the lack of good bbq and he mentioned that his wife, a Texan, agreed BUT mentioned she liked a place about 5 miles from my house. I took this as a sign and made a little field trip today. What a pleasant surprise. Red White & Que is located in Kearny NJ in a little hole in the wall. I ordered brisket, Mac and cheese and pickles and onions. Delicious. Great bark. If you’re in northern NJ is is DEFINITELY worth a stop.

Neat when you trip over a really good eatery.
Mr. Bones is right the old Mom n Pop places slowly go by the wayside and are replaced by franchised mass produced fodder for the masses.

Even in Texas there are more less than great places than really good ones. I'm glad you found a good one near you. Sometimes it's nice to let someone else do the cooking and clean up!Comment

I watch a number of TV shows since I'm retired devoted to the Q and take several magazines also. There is good Q in nearly every state in the union. They may be few and far between but they are there. We have one an hour from me that was written up by Southern Living. One 2 hours from me written up by the NY Times. I have read or seen great BBQ spots from Maine to Hawaii. It may only be one per state but they are out there.
Here is one list of the best of the best by MSN It is based on various sources:
