The first battle of smoked meats.
Barbecue, and/or grilling, is a little more typical in the Southern and/or Western states in terms of straight-up tailgating. And every region does it its own way, whether we're talking Texas Style, Carolina, what have you.
It's a little more involved -- you'll need the day/night before for most long-term smokes. But it's always worth it, right?
And lord knows everybody can agree that it's all great, right? Especially on the internet!
No. 2 Brisket
The champagne of smoked meats? A trimmed, delicious, Texas-style smoked brisket is pretty damn tough to beat.
