"Established in 1953, Shaw’s is one of the original homes of Santa Maria-style barbecue where the meat is cooked hot and fast over an open flame; I’d start with the Linguica, a spicy Portuguese sausage that nods to the region’s early Portuguese settlers, and consider one of the extensive oak-pit entrees — the heftiest being the 20-ounce rib-eye center “Cowboy Cut.”" - Natalie Zimmerman
