You haven't tried Double Barrel BBQ in Burlington apparently and you must
not be terribly impressed with Bodacious BBQ in Granite Falls. The Brick
House in Everett finally died a long overdue death.

On JD's behalf I'll say that that is an official submission. Bodacious does
make some purty good sammiches. Never tried the ribs but judgin' by the
looks of that giant Klose he's got out back I'm bettin they're pretty good.
As for Double Barrel, never tried it but JD swears its good and he seems to
know his Q.

Ok, man....you added Dreamland and The Golden Rule but you seem to have
forgotten to add Fosco's House.

That would be:

Fosco's House
Auburn Washington

I'm hurt.

No hold on there...

2 things, one, I'm gonna run outta room if I try to put all the AFBers
AND their favorite Q joints on the same map.., I haven't gotten around
to the AFBers map yet.....next, I found a copy of another mapping
program that'll let me do regional maps and stats and such as soon as
I get it in my hot little hands on it, I'll see about getting
everything on one highfalutin' map web thingy.

I stand corrected, JD. Bodacious does appear to be allright. Doubt I'll ever
get to Burlington to try the other. And I did notice the closing of the
Brick House. I didn't get all watery over that one.

What about Big Bam's in the Everett Mall? Any opinions? The fact that its in
a mall kinda scared me away. And the guy is actually named Bam.
Sheesh...whatta mom.

No kidding. That was the most pathetically Norwegian bachelor farmer excuse
for Q I ever tasted. I'm amazed they lasted as long as they did.

Damn, I wonder if it's that guy that had the place in Arlington. That place
wasn't bad but way overpriced. I haven't been to the mall in a coon's age
but since Jones' BBQ opened up a branch in a Bellevue mall I'm willing to
supress my instincts and try it once. They may get the taste right but mall
ambience just don't cut it for Q.

I've got a recipe for Lutefisk, and since it involves fire, I guess it's
barbecue. If you want, I can dig it up for you.

Hey, it takes less than half a bottle of the stuff to completely disconnect
your taste buds. As a former SIL of a Norwegian farmer I've choked down more
lutefisk than I should have, surviving only by consuming copious amounts of
aquavit *before* eating. I would guess that purpose of pairing Q with it
would be so you could use a potent habanero sauce to burn out the lutefisk
taste. OTOH, a little smoke flavor could only improve the lutefisk (ewww!)

Fos, you should try Miss Myra's in Birmingham. Much better than
Golden Rule.

I'd also add Old Clinton BBQ in Clinton, GA to the map. And, in case
nobody has mentioned them yet, the multitude of Q joints in Lexington,
NC. Jimmy's is my favorite of the Lexington places.

I recently found that there's decent (but not spectacular) Q in
Manchester, NH: Down and Dirty.

Well, The Golden Rule is what I grew up with, so I don't know. Never heard
of Miss Myra's and since I now live in glorious Auburn, Washington it may be
awhile before I get anywhere near B'ham to try anything else. I know B'ham
has TGR and Dreamland. Don't know why they would need or even allow anything
else.:>)
I might get down there in late May if I'm lucky for Mom's Bday. Maybe I'll
check it out. So many foods to eat again, so little time, y'know.

Word is that the Dreamland in Birmingham is nowhere near as good as
the original in Tuscaloosa. I've been to the original--which I really
liked--but not to the B'ham location.

Fos, you prolly already know this, but avoid Johnny Ray's.

Checked out Big Bam's BBQ in Everett Mall today. The pork sammich was chunks
o' pork tossed on the grill with a little sauce applied at the end. The
sauce was decent (i.e. not sweet) and the slaw was so-so. It ain't Q in my
book but it beats hell out the usual junk you find for corporate mall food.
Wouldn't drive out of my way for it.
