I've never had this kind of barbecue, except once and it was very bad.
I love good food and I'd really like to try some *good* barbecue.
Unfortunately, I live in Northeast Ohio. Cleveland/Akron/Youngstown
area. The only place I know of around here is a rib place called
"Blazing Bill's" which I hear is only so-so. Do you know of any good
barbecue restaurants in this area, or do I have to drive to Kansas
City?

There is a restaurant in Bainbridge/Chagrin Falls, it used to be
called Stix, not sure what the name is now, but it is on the south
side of E Washington St, west of Rt 306 off of 422. For a long time
they made very good, real, wood-smoked cue, hopefully it's still
there, tho I think the name has changed. Google around or check
cleveland.com postings, there may be something in a past posting. Good
luck.

Found it! It's called Fireside Grill now. I wonder if it's still "real"
barbecue...

"Real" barbecue in Ohio???????
I moved to Cincinnati from SE Texas. I never saw anything in the area
that resembled barbecue. Move to Texas for the best barbecue!

*sigh* I've been reading all these pages and posts about
melt-in-your-mouth perfect brisket and now I WANT SOME!!!

I've discovered (or rather been educated) that what I always thought
was "barbecue" is actually grilling and that the "brisket" my
grandmother served isn't how it's supposed to be.

It sounds like I'm going to have trek at least several hours south and
or west to actually eat some of this wonderful sounding stuff. Even
Columbus is three hours away.

Actually, there are a few places in Cincinnati to get BBQ. I lived there for
5 years and had to sample alot of bad q to get to a few ok ones. One is
called 'Pig to Plate', another was 'barbeque revue', both are expensive for
the amount of meat you'll get. I now live back in the Memphis area where I
am originally from and had a half rack of babyback ribs with all the sides
for $10.95!
Hope this helps,
