Gary’s BBQ

I had the chance to check on this place several times between Sat. and Tues. of this past week, because I had bought a storage units contents at auction nearby. It still appears to be closed, the only difference noted was the fence along the E. University side of the property is no longer there. Pretty sure this place is out of business !

It’s a little red roadside stand and it has the most fabulous BBQ. I’d stack them against Super Smokers in Missouri or Bubbalous in Florida. Ok, so I have thing for BBQ and I try to find the best I can anywhere I go. All that means is that I know my BBQ and when I tell you to check this out don’t give me any lip. Get in your car and start driving. You might want to call first to make sure he’s open. He tends to close up shop when he runs out of BBQ to sell.
He smokes everything himself and makes his own sauce. The pulled pork and the brisket are both just melt in your mouth tender. The sauce is right balance acid, sweet, and heat and will make you want to lick the wrapper on your sandwich. All the sides are from scratch and are usually made by his wife. I highly recommend the coleslaw. And now they even take credit cards. Just absolutely delightful.
