Best Barbecue: North 

Smokin' Guns BBQ

This little firecracker of a joint doesn't stay open too late. In fact, owners Phil and Linda Hopkins — the 1999 Grand Champion winners of the Jack Daniel's World Championship Invitational Barbecue Contest — stop serving at 6 p.m. But late eaters can stop by early for carryout because the restaurant always serves fantastic sandwiches, sides and the kick-ass combo platter heaped with four tender baby back ribs and three smoked meats; the brisket is too good to pass up. Stick it in a warm oven and dine whenever you want.

Smokin Guns is my choice for best BBQ in the city, not just in the northland. I am so happy I found this little place for my once a week lunch visit and sometimes more. Place your order, pull up a chair and you'll have your food in less than five minutes. One of the few places that still seems to be aware we don't have endless lunch hours. I've been on a rib eating frenzy over the last couple of months. I've been to Danny Edwards Blvd. / JackStack / Arthur Bryants / Gates and Smokin Guns and when it comes to ribs Smokin Guns tops them all in my opinion.
