"Open for: Lunch, dinnerPrice range: $$Michael Symon’s downtown barbecue joint has developed a winning formula that pairs truly exceptional smoked meat with a lively industrial saloon setting. Cooked low and slow over Ohio fruitwoods, items like beef brisket, pork butt, pork ribs, turkey, and kielbasa exit the pits supple, smoky, and delicious. Those meats come by the pound or packed into two-fisted sandwiches. Sides and snacks include creamed corn, fried potatoes, broccoli salad, and pork cracklins with French onion dip. Brown booze fans will relish one of the best bourbon selections in town, while craft beer fans will have no complaints either. There is patio seating right on lively East Fourth Street.Vibe check: Brown booze fans will relish one of the best bourbon selections in town, while craft beer fans will have no complaints either." - Douglas Trattner
