"Absolutely head to the Smoke Shop BBQ in Kendall Square for fall-off-the-bone barbecue. (There are sibling outposts in Somerville’s Assembly Row complex and the Seaport, as well as a takeout and delivery only shop in Harvard Square.) And remember to order some of its legendary cornbread, which is exceptional on its own — the squares of crumbly goodness are brushed with sea salt honey butter — but approaches god mode when slathered with any combination of Smoke Shop BBQ sauces. The cornbread can be ordered as a side for $1.50 per square. The Smoke Shop BBQ is open for indoor dining, and pickup and delivery via its website." - Nathan Tavares
