- №1
Lewis Barbecue Charleston
East Central
“MICHELIN Bib Gourmand 2025. John Lewis's Central-Texas brisket program, hand-sliced to order from custom smokers — City Paper calls it a destination for the brisket and the corn pudding.”
- №2
Rodney Scott's BBQ
North Central
“MICHELIN Bib Gourmand 2025. James Beard Best Chef: Southeast (2018) Rodney Scott's whole-hog pit out of Hemingway, SC — Garden & Gun singles out Ella's banana puddin' and the rib-eye sandwich.”
- №3
Home Team BBQ
West Ashley
“Garden & Gun Saturday pick for smoked wings. A local multi-location BBQ-and-music mainstay; won Best of Charleston for Best Wings (2024) on its way to becoming a regional brand.”
- №4
Edmund's Original (Formerly Edmund's Oast)
Upper Peninsula
“Garden & Gun's must-eat mac-and-peas pick — ditalini and aged cheddar béchamel — from the brewpub's smokehouse kitchen. A Morrison Drive destination that bridges craft beer and smoked-meat cooking.”
