Miami’s Best (And Most Miami) Barbecue Spots - Miami - The Infatuation

"Cafecito-rubbed meat and guava barbecue sauce are becoming the pillars of Miami-style barbecue. And while Smoke & Dough’s menu includes those building blocks, the West Kendall restaurant takes the concept of Miami barbecue further than anyone else. Smoke & Dough combines the best of Miami’s familiar Latin American staples with American barbecue. There’s brisket with Mexican mole, Puerto Rican mofongo topped with smoked duck, and tequeños filled with pastrami. It’s familiar but different—experimental but rigorously tested. Smoke & Dough’s interpretation of Miami-style barbecue is so dialed in, they’re setting the pace for everyone else joining the scene." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
