When PiC is with me for a hard ticket event, we just go to DTD and hang by the resort, then head into MK at 4pm. That way she doesn't even have to use a day on her MYW ticket...

The place in Memphis is The Rendezvous. Ir's dry rubbed which I personally like better than the wet. As for sauce if your BBQ needs sauce then there is something wrong with it. Although you can order Rendezvous online and have it shipped to you DON"T do it. Just not the same. > >One of my top 5 BBQ joints is in Oregon.

Maybe I was there on a > bad day, but PiC agrees that NC is better. Arthur Bryants is overrated and overly salty. Gates is better, and there are numerous small places about KC that are comparatively unknown that also outshine AB's. My all time fave closed in the late 80's when its owner, Oscar, died of kidney disease and none of his kids wanted to take over. And Bryants is in a neighborhood that makes the south side of Chicago look like a children's playground by comparison. jt |
