Top Chef alum and legendary whole-hog pitmaster Rodney Scott's BBQ joint is regularly swarmed with fans clamoring for succulent pulled pork, fried catfish, chicken and rib plates and rib-eye sandwiches. It teeters and totters along a fine line between gentrified (slick T-shirts, IPAs on draft) and old school (peg-board menu).
The 'cue delivers, especially when smothered in vinegary 'Rodney's Sauce' and/or tomato-y 'Other Sauce.'
