Wed Jun 03 10:38:38 -0700 2009 262965 mayfair 1 4739303 No such animal in lower or upper westchester.... I have several smokers and compete in several events during the year. My best suggestion, drive into the city, Daisy Mae's on 11 Ave and 46thish and pick up some of your husband s favorites to go. Its a few blocks off the Westside Highway, easy on and easy off. Wed Jun 03 11:25:11 -0700 2009 4739133 163807 baldwinwood 1 4739777 I"m no expert. I have heard great things about Yvonne's in Pelham. I prefer Cajun stuff to BBQ. Aside from Q, which I have heard is pretty mediocre, there isn't any real BBQ joints in Westchester that I know of. Wed Jun 03 13:33:40 -0700 2009 4739133 165800 jhopp217 2 4740626 By Yvonne's, do you mean the soul food place? If so, that's not a BBQ spot. OK soul food, but it is not a Daisy Mae's or Blue Smoke etc. Wed Jun 03 18:08:58 -0700 2009 4739777 13427 Ora 3 4741898 I'm aware it's a Southern Restaurant, but they have BBQ Ribs, Chicken, and Pulled Pork. Last time I checked those were considered BBQ. Honestly, I've been to a few BBQ joints, but the best pulled pork and the best BBQ ribs I have ever had were not at BBQ joints. Thu Jun 04 08:28:22 -0700 2009 4740626 165800 jhopp217 4 4743803 Yes--it's oven BBQ. Thu Jun 04 19:21:55 -0700 2009 4741898 13427 Ora 2 4740776 The sauce that Q infuses with its pulled pork and chopped brisket is ridiculously sweet like candy. really bad stuff!!! but they do run a really great bread place down the street called the kneaded bread. that's the place to go.

Worth the trip. Great meats, great sides. Fri Jun 12 16:32:30 -0700 2009 4739133 10178 Elisa515 2 4835314 take it from a kcbs certified bbq judge, we're 10 minutes away and its not worth the trip for us. Mon Jul 06 20:56:16 -0700 2009 4768121 17612 vinouspleasure 3 5161916 Then where does a KCBS certified bbq judge eat barbecue out? What places are "worth it"?

Fri Nov 06 16:24:19 -0800 2009 4768121 28696 i_eat_a_lot_of_ice_cream 1 4784255 Big W's is definitely the place to go. Not really close at all if you are in Southern Westchester. I drove for 50 minutes to get there and it was definitely worth it. I even love their unique take on BBQ sauce, it is kind of like a vinegary hoisin sauce. Thu Jun 18 08:47:30 -0700 2009 4739133 233431 randomdude 2 4835923 It's not a father's day place, but for mostly take out or sit down (in a vibe that resembles McDonalds) the BBQ Rib House in Fleetwood is good. At least everything is usually falling off the bone tender and not too sweet. I usually order pork ribs and jerk chicken (with Mac and Cheese). I am no BBQ Aficionado, but I hate sweet sweet sauces (like the type you find in the Supermarket takeout counter...BLECH!) Tue Jul 07 06:46:22 -0700 2009 4784255 10243 jcmods
