"Located on an island off Brunswick, this oak-fired barbecue spot turns out pulled pork, ribs, brisket, chicken, and turkey that its pitmaster and hog farmer calls the “gold standard.” A must-try is the Brunswick Stew, a rich, smoked-meat-forward stew finished with both vinegar and mustard-based Carolina sauces that yields a tangy, hearty yet unexpectedly light flavor profile." - Greg Baker
