Jerry Remy's, Boston MA

The bottom line: There are still some minor kinks to work out, but overall, Jerry Remy's Sports Bar and Grill is a winner. The atmosphere, service and value are all there, and the barbecue is both unique and occasionally very good.

RUB (Righteous Urban Barbecue), New York City

The bottom line: RUB is serious barbecue for the serious barbecue fan. If you’re expecting to use up several napkins on soaking wet, fall-off-the-bone faux ‘cue, you’ll probably be disappointed here. But if you like extra smoky meats cooked in old school competition style, you’re in for a treat.

Uncle Willie's, Waterbury & New Haven

The bottom line: I really want to love Uncle Willie’s, but I don’t. I do like them, though.

Hill Country, New York City

The bottom line: Hill Country seems to have hit the ground running, reaching a level of excellence in their first few days that most barbecue joints never see in a lifetime. The sides and desserts need some work, but the meats were good across the board, with the Texas holy trinity of brisket, beef ribs and sausage phenomenal.

Premier Palette, Manchester NH

The bottom line: call it soul food, call it barbecue, call it whatever you want; just call me if you’re going.
