It may surprise you to come to a former auto-body repair shop to eat meat, but the funky building and outside courtyard seem just right for some serious 'cue. Here a huge wood-and-gas smoker delivers well-smoked brisket, sausages, ribs, and even duck, ordered by the pound. Avoid the disappointing salads and sides, and instead order some of the more than 40 American whiskeys and 10 microbrews. Come early, as tables fill up, and even with 700 pounds of meat a night, the good stuff runs out by 9 PM.
