It’s a debate that will never truly be settled. How could anyone definitively say which BBQ restaurant is the best in America? There are so many good ones serving up so many different styles and variations on those styles. It might be easier to find the worst BBQ joint in America…but who would want to do that!?!

Nevertheless, TastingTable.com felt up to the task of compiling 50 of the best BBQ restaurants in America. Their list isn’t limited to one restaurant per state, so North Carolina and South Carolina each have multiple honorees. From classic pulled pork to racks of ribs, and even Central Texas-style brisket, you’ll find it all in the Carolinas.
