PrintSeriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Southside Market Sausage
Every day through January 1 we're giving away a crazy good food item on Serious Eats. Try your luck, and if you win, you'll be eating some seriously delicious food come the new year.
When winter draws near, I start thinking about sausage. (Actually, I think about sausage year-round.) About the best, juiciest, meatiest, just-smoky-enough sausage I know is the sausage the Bracewell family makes and serves at their phenomenal Texas barbecue joint the Southside Market. The Bracewells are a generously spirited bunch, so they've given us ten pound packages of their incomparable sausage to give away as part of the Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway. Win and you can have your very own Texas barbecue sausage holiday party. Doesn't that sound good? —Ed Levine
To enter: Tell us what your favorite barbecue joint is.
You have until 3 p.m. ET tomorrow (December 14) to enter. One winner will be chosen at random from among the commenters. Contest winners are limited to residents of the continental U.S., and you can only win once during the duration of the Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway contest. The standard Serious Eats contest rules apply.

Jang Tuh Sutbulgui. Ok, that's korean BBQ.

that's really simple, there's only 2 places to go in the dallas-fort worth area.
Clarks in Tioga, TX and The Smokehouse in Lindsey, TX
Clarks makes and sells their own sauce, plus always seems to be in those BBQ books of places you need to go to, plus they have their own helicopter pad and the Smokehouse has good food that is really inexpensive and an elderly waitress that can can tell the dirtiest jokes and make you laugh the whole time you're there.

It doesn't exist any more, but it was the Branding Iron in Downers Grove, Illinois.

Redbones, in Davis Square, Somerville, MA.

When I'm lucky enough to be near there, City Market in Luling, TX. For local barbeque, I like the Smoke Station here in Savannah.
jcwest47 at 3:42PM on 12/13/08
In the spirit of being local, Beale Street BBQ here in Portland, ME is quite awesome, and I'm normally not an American BBQ kind of fan. But it is tempting to do what simon did and start naming other ethnic barbecue places...=P
uninorth at 3:43PM on 12/13/08
sadly I have not discovered a truly great barbeque joint in South Bend,IN, but i do love the rib tips at fast food joint called King Gyros...can't go wrong for $5. Other than that my own kitchen.
Sigilum at 3:44PM on 12/13/08
Walter Gray's Tower Bar-B-Q in Siloam Springs, Arkansas, where a 6" sandwich of BBQ pork, beef, chicken, hot link or Polish sausage is five bucks.
LunaPierCook at 3:44PM on 12/13/08
shoneyjoe is pretty close. Redbones has a good atmosphere and good beer but the best barbecue around boston is Blue Ribbon in Arlington and West Newton. People say that Bullocks in Durham, NC is the best - I can tell you Blue Ribbon is better.
christopher at 3:48PM on 12/13/08
City Market Luling, TX
Beef n' Bun Houston, TX on Long Point. Their BBQ is really good and inexpensive plus they make the best French Fries in the world.
eatorama at 3:51PM on 12/13/08
Sadly there aren't any outstanding BBQ joints in Minneapolis. I would have to say my favorite is Famous Daves. We live a few doors down and can smell bacon outside any time of the day, gotta love it. :)
bpitman at 3:51PM on 12/13/08
the brisket at Hill Country is awesome.
DanielJ at 3:53PM on 12/13/08

Harold's Barbecue in Atlanta/Jonesboro. Been there since 1947 - looks like you need a tetanus shot to open the door but the best 'cue in the city.

I do love some elgin hot guts, but I got to go with Lockhart on this one and say Smitty's, née Kreuz's.
But here in NC, Allen & Son is surely up there on the list.
thanks
intheyearofthepig at 4:01PM on 12/13/08
Goode Company Barbecue in Houston Texas!
Lived there 18 years and can still taste it now.........in Alabama.
I now order from 1-800-AIR-RIBS
Best sausage on the planet!
dixiesue at 4:01PM on 12/13/08
Bullock's in Durham, NC is the epitome of eastern NC BBQ for me. I like 'em so much that they catered my wedding!
B's Barbecue in Greenville, NC is also delicious, and I admit Wilber's in Goldsboro, NC also holds a special place in my heart (for that was where I lost my BBQ virginity).
These days, my favorite BBQ joint is my kitchen - Virginians around here just can't seem to get the 'cue right.
jenilowrance at 4:06PM on 12/13/08
Muddy River Smokehosue in Portsmouth, NH
likely not comparable to really good bbq but it's where i had my first pulled pork!
veggieout at 4:06PM on 12/13/08
My favorite barbecue joint is B's outside Greenville, NC. They have a strange operating schedule because they are closed on Monday and during the rest of the week they open at 11 am and close when that day's cooking is sold. The secret is to get there early and you will be rewarded with the best Eastern NC barbecue around.
townfam at 4:06PM on 12/13/08
Anyplace that features BBQ animal flesh should qualify, but my current favorite is Hill Country.
Dogstar at 4:09PM on 12/13/08
Duke's Station in Pittsburgh. Melt-in-your-mouth baby backs with kicker sauce. There are other good ones, but this is our go-to.
Josdean at 4:10PM on 12/13/08
I just drove cross-country and had amazing barbecue at Arthur Bryant's in Kansas City. YUM..

I'm gonna go with Smitty's in Lockhart, TX, mostly for....man, well for everything.
ultradave at 4:19PM on 12/13/08
The Dinosaur in Syracuse. And it has to be Syracuse.
dhorst at 4:19PM on 12/13/08
Hmm - that's easy! Whatever BBQ Joint is closest!
- Rudy's in Austin, TX when it's delivered monthly for company lunch.
- Stubb's in Austin, TX when a great music show is accompanied by a deliciouis pulled-pork sandwich.
Here in the great Pacific NW - it's The Russell Street Bar.B.Que in Portland!

Smokin' Al's, in Bay Shore, New York - sooooo good. Who knew you could find good 'que on Long Island?
mmclau28 at 4:23PM on 12/13/08
Bubbalou's in Orlando is my local place, but the best 'cue I've ever had was probably at The Georgia Pig.

The backyard when my dad roasts a whole hog. Can't be beat. Always a great party.
kyle25 at 5:25PM on 12/13/08
Depends what you need:
- burnt ends: Bryant's in KC
- chopped 'Q: any backroad shack in middle Georgia or coastal NC
- ribs: Dreamland in Tuscaloosa
And Beale St. in Maine *is* pretty good, too.

Twisters and Chubby's in Caruthersville MO. Before that it was the Tennessee service station also located in that town. Vinegar based pulled pork sandwiches with coleslaw don't get any better than in that neck of the woods.

Bo-b-que on Edisto Island, SC. It's only 2 miles from my house and they have this great buffet with the best pulled pork. Sauce is on the side and they even make their own pork rinds. The other is the smoker in my backyard.

My favorite BBQ joint is the one that I use the most napkins at. I love to have the juices and sauce dripping from my mouth. I have eaten at the Southside Market and it is great! I live in Pflugerville, which is close to Elgin. I also like Iron Works BBQ in Austin.

Also, don't love their ribs, probably because it's not actually a BBQ joint, but Houston's has a really tasty bbq SAUCE.

I have been meaning to try Tyler's Taste of Texas, near San Diego, but I haven't yet. Everyone says good things about it! Besides a couple of cheap, old timey BBQ pit places, I don't know of any other barbecue in SD.

Um, I live in Vancouver. That means I don't have one. And sure, you could argue that Memphis Blues is the best in town, but really? They don't have much competition.

Not a braggart, but the smoke coming out of my own backyard gives me the best Q I've had....come on over and let me show you!

Well, since Mexican food dominates out where I live, the only decent BBQ joint out here is Brushfire BBQ...or whatever I decide to make in my own smoker.

My favorite BBQ joint is the backyard upstate at my pal Stone's house... :-)

Here in the Frozen North, the only decent bbq is what I make myself, alas.

Caveman Kitchens in Seattle is probably my favorite, at least there. I'm also partial to Jack's on Broadway in Nashville.
