You think brisket isn’t BBQ, so as a matter of fact you’re an absolute Gomer. Not debatable. Stupid.
You probably also think your local Mexican joint serves authentic Mexican, the local China buffet’s Kung Pao Beef is really cow and not cat, and that the strippers really like you. Fortunately you live in a country where you’re free to be as wrong as you want to be. Don’t be a hater just because the only thing you can “bbq” is a pork roast. The world is a much bigger place. You’re like CNC with his dog fennel thinking it’s the sign of a healthy ecosystem. Sonofa...  Dadgum Texicans think if something is cooked over an open flame it’s BBQ. With that idea Burger King is BBQ. Come to think of it then charbroiled patties are kinda close to your normal dried azz brisket.

BBQ is roasting meat over a flame while it rests on sticks or something other apparatus. Barbacoa Buccaneers has something to do with Columbus and exploration of the new world.
Hooks BBQ in Troy is good.

I lived 12 years in Memphis. I’ve lived in Georgia and Alabama. I haven’t found anywhere that compares with several places in Memphis. Porkies is my favorite

I hate making a good first impression. There’s no way I can keep that shit up.

Butcher Paper in Opelika has good pork. Chris's and Fat Boys in Prattville are good. Fat Boys may be out of business.

Jim's in Billingsley is the best around. I mean, you said it and I said it. Should be the end of discussion. Jim's is hands down the best BBQ in the world. Case closed. that's a bold statement....I'll check it. I'm a fat boy from way back.

The best:
Jim's is outstanding.
Kendall's is great.
R&R is fine stuff.
Saws is excellent
The good:
Original Golden Rule in Hoover or Irondale, outside sliced.
Carlisle's is good.
Whitt's especially with the hot sauce
Several others but my list is at the office.
The bad:
Big Bob Gibson is trash
Lawlers is gross
Sonny's is horrible
Lloyd's on 280 has horrible bbq

I dont like BBQ slathered in sauce. best ribs to me were at a place called heavenly ribs in sumiton. They had dry rubbed ribs that were great to me.
The PIT BBQ in Bham has some of the worst to me. You cant get it sliced, and their chopped is so fine sometimes its like eating mushy bbq sauce.
Im ok with Bob Sykes with some hot sauce added to it.
Green top actually does decent smoked wings about half the time. Its hit or miss.
Full moon has a great bbq chicken plate
Carlisle has a good smoked turkey plate.
Dreamland isnt what it was 20 yrs ago.

Worst in the Great State of Alabama is Country’s BBQ in Montgomery or Demetri’s BBQ in Homewood or Full Moon or Gibson’s on the Parkway in Huntsville and Big B in Alex City that ought to be forced to take BBQ off their sign
Overrated - any franchised Dreamland, Bob Gibson’s pork
Underrated - pork at August’s on 280 near childersburg. Moes wings.
