Best 33 BBQ Joints?

[JGrana]

Sadly I have only been to two in the list - Louie Mueller and Smitty's Market... I need to up my game!

Living in Western NY, the closest on the list is Arrogant Swine in Brooklyn, NY - 6 hours away.
We do have Dinosaur BBQ here in Rochester. I must admit that the last few times I have gone I have been somewhat underwhelmed... Maybe all the expansion Dino is doing is taking its toll on quality.

Or, my BBQ skills have increased with AmazingRibs and a KBQ! smoker ;-)

Only been to Central in Memphis and I thought it was OK. I go to Charlotte a lot so I'll be able to check out Sweet Lew's and report in in the next 4 or 5 weeks. Planning on Scott's soon too - we have family that I think we need to visit in Savannah, and it is only a short hop to Charleston.

3 in Illinois, 2 in Brooklyn NY. Los Angeles, Portland OR... somewhere, likely south of the Mason-Dixon, someone has a hot take on the list... ;-)

Only been to one on the list: Little Miss BBQ in Phoenix. It was excellent, especially the brisket.
