I'm not a fan of Carolina type barbeque, I think they add too much ****. Hence why my top 10 is all from Texas. But I get your point.
Best BBQ you’ve had?

I lived in the Austin area for over 30 years but I prefer the pork over beef. Was never a big Q fan until Franklin came along, changed everything. He does an excellent job with pork also, would get a PP sandwich along with the brisket every visit.
Rudy's has always been pretty solid for chain Q, we love their breakfast tacos & sausage wraps.
Cincinnati is a place with some interesting tastes......using spicy ketchup as a BBQ sauce substitute.......putting cinnamon/nutmeg in hot dog chili.....etc.
Leigh's is so good that he runs out by three or four o'clock. Pork and chicken. He has a sign that he puts out there letting his customers know that he is out. His goods are tasty and always fresh.
Obviously a matter of taste, but I agree with Real Deal. Vinegar-based dip is the best style of barbecue. You can keep your smoked meat with ketchup-style sauce squeezed on top.
If you're into dip style and you like ham or mutton, I'd suggest Peak Brothers in Waverly, KY (Union County). It's far better than anything in Owensboro. Like most great hole-in-the-wall barbecue places, it's burned down three or four times over the years. Excellent dip.

Actually it is in Lake City, but who is keeping score. Love me some Knoth's. In fact, I believe they opened today for the season.
Not to mention the ground pork, rolled oats and spices for breakfast.
I’ve come to enjoy some Cincy’s tastes but it’s all about what you were brought up on. The WKY folks swear by their BBQ because it’s what they grew up with. I grew up with Tennessee BBQ mixed in with some Alabama cue, so I have a fondness for it (actually Lawler’s BBQ....the wrestler Jerry’s place). (Though I think Texas is best).
I haven’t been to Hård Eight, I’ll have to try it now, it’s down the road from me. Have you been to Hutchins? There is one in Frisco and one in McKinney, it’s the best I’ve had in DFW. When I get to Owensboro, I always stop at Old Hickory, purely for the mutton and burgoo, because I can’t get it anywhere else.
Food is kind of like music in some respects as well. The best tastes and sounds came from bad times like the depression and from poor people looking for cheap eats and entertainment. Goetta certainly falls into that category as a way to stretch a dwindling supply of pork. Necessity is the mother of invention.
Momma's Mustard Pickles and BBQ was rated high in Louisville.
When I went, BBQ was dry and no gosh darn pickles! WTH pickles are in your name. :thumbsdown:
Anyone been to the Catholic parish picnics in western KY?

Stayed overnight in Farmville a couple of years ago when we went to a high school football playoff game at Appomattox. Toured Appomattox Courthouse, which was interesting. The battlefield park was a major disappointment. Nothing much there at all. A coworker had a nephew who played football at H-S a few years back. He'd go up for the home games and stay in Farmville.
Most battlefields have nothing much at all. There is a reason they are called fields.
Well....I was hoping it would have at least been kept up. The parking lot was crumbling and the "battlefield" had trash and weeds grown up. I think there was maybe a marker or two with a plaque. Appomattox Court House was pretty interesting though, especially the McLean house where Lee surrendered.
