Twoguns and I started a barbecue blog. Hope you enjoy!
Happy weekend.
Queen City Q > Midwood Smokehouse (I think? I go back and forth between these two. Both very good.)
Midwood Smokehouse > Mac’s (Not close.)
Mac’s > City Smoke (Not really close, either.)
I had City Smoke for lunch today and was pretty disappointed. The pork was not chopped well, nor was the slaw. The sauces were so-so. They did seem to have a good whiskey selection, but I’m not sure I’ll be going back.
*I’m a huge BBQ snob. Lexington BBQ is the only real type of BBQ and no restaurant comes close to Lexington #1. Keep in mind when considering my rankings.

I asked the Bro and Sis-in-Law if they had a Sophie yet for my (yet to be born) niece. They had not heard of a Sophie. Well, I couldn’t imagine my niece having to grow up without having a Sophie, so I bought her one today.
What has happened to me?
MINOR STORIES: Susong's Top 50 Ryan Adams Songs -
I came to know Ryan Adams through TRL. No, seriously. I remember watching one afternoon at the beginning of my sophomore year and saw the debut of “New York, New York.” I dug it immediately and that afternoon walked down to Schoolkids Records and asked if they had the album with that New…
