Every city, it seems, has their "great BBQ place." At least that's what they're always showing on the Food Network. I hear people talking about their favorites here, but I haven't heard any resounding agreements from multiple parties yet.
But in the meantime, it'll be good to go to the source - the single players who do it right, at least according to their family recipe. This Saturday, Aug 11, check out the Guardsmen's Bay Area BBQ festival! Head over to Justin Herman Plaza between 9:00AM and 5:00 PM - it's free to attend or $500 to throw your meat on the Q. Food will be available for sale on site. Judging is at 4:45 in case you want to see who the winners are.
And it's all for a good cause - raising money for programs for disadvantaged Bay Area youth.
Sounds just finger lickin' good to me!
