New Orleans Restaurant Named Best BBQ Spot in Louisiana

KNGT-FM - When you think of Louisiana food favorites, Barbecue is probably not at the top of the food chain here in the Bayou State. But, if you're looking for some barbecue, who has the best in the state? The folks over at LoveFoods.com took some time to rank the best barbecue joint in every state. Who do you think it is?

I think we can all agree on the fact that Louisiana has some of the best food in the country. Between the gumbo, jambalaya, boudin, and fresh seafood, you can’t really go wrong no matter where you eat. In my personal opinion, the best food in Louisiana doesn't come from the New Orleans area like most travelers think, it actually comes from the 337 area code.

The folks over at LoveFood.com have been ranking the best restaurants in the country for years now. LoveFood.com is a website all about sharing a love for food with people everywhere.

The Joint in New Orleans Named Best Barbecue Joint in Louisiana

A New Orleans staple, The Joint, has been named the best place to get barbecue in the entire State of Louisiana.

"New Orleans has a solid reputation for serving Southern and Creole cuisine – but it's less famed for its barbecue. Nevertheless, a few excellent places throughout the state smoke onsite, including neighborhood hangout The Joint... Here, you can get incredible pulled pork, barbecued beans, and sweet, vinegary barbecue sauce."
