Pig Beach BBQ

A smoked meat sanctuary from Kentucky, you’ll smell this place well before you get there (a good thing). Chef Jeff’s salt-and-pepper-crusted brisket with pickles, crispy onions and his award-winning BBQ sauce is what keeps the crowds packing in as early as 9:30 on Sunday mornings. For sides, the purple cole slaw with smoked jalapeno and pineapple and the pitmaster potato salad with celery, eggs, mayo, and seasoning, are outstanding. The mac and cheese and collards are also mainstays. For dessert—it is called PIG Beach, you know—there’s soft serve ice cream and a fantastic Key Lime pie. Oink.
