Memphis.

Maybe it’s changed. I’ll have to re-taste all varieties again.

> Where in the Bay Area did you go? I was never impressed by any of the Texas-style places I’d tried, in either the Bay Area or in the Monterey area, and I never made it out to ‘Doug’s under the bridge’ before he closed. I always wondered, “What’s the point again? Why do people rave about this stuff?” And then I found Kreuz, Smitty’s and Luling…

It is hard to find, but there is good BBQ in the bay area. Memphis Minnies is the best in San Francisco proper. If you are up for the trek, Bo’s BBQ in Lafayette is the pinnacle. There are some decent spots in the east bay as well, like KCs or Everett & Jones. Doug’s never impressed me much, fwiw.

Brady, TX is home to the annual [World Championship BBQ Goat Cook-Off](http://www.bradytx.com/pages/WorldChampionshipGoatCookOff1). Good stuff.
