"J-Bar-M in EaDo serves up some of the city’s best new-school barbecue in one of the prettiest restaurants dedicated to smoked meats we’ve ever seen. Before the game, have some beautifully rendered brisket, snappy jalapeño-cheddar sausage, and thick slices of pepper-crusted turkey breast with fresh flowers on the table. Plus their creamy macaroni and cheese or smoky charro beans are way more satisfying than a bag of peanuts. Just make sure to grab some extra napkins before you sit down. How to get there: drive (five minutes) or take a pedicab (6 minutes)" - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
