"What began as pitmaster Hector Garate’s hobby of smoking brisket for his family became the Palmira Barbecue pop-up and is now becoming a brick-and-mortar at 2366 Ashley River Road; Garate blends flavors and techniques from Texas, North Carolina, and his native Puerto Rico to create dishes like juicy beef cheeks, smoky pulled pork, and rich barbacoa." - Erin Perkins
