"Maybe it’s December and you’re craving the warmth of smoked beef, or maybe it’s the middle of summer and there is just no way you’re lighting up a grill. Wood Shop BBQ in the CD always comes in handy. Their meat options—like ten-hour smoked short ribs, brisket with the perfect ratio of fatty to meaty pieces, and pork ribs that we have trouble sharing—are consistently exceptional. Not to mention their extra-creamy jalapeño mac and cheese topped with pulled pork is a creation so significant it deserves a spot in the Time 100 issue." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
