I'm not saying that I haven't found spectacular plates of barbecue during my travels. I have. But the standouts were few and far between, and all of 'em at places that still cook exclusively with wood.
San Antonio Tour
Year:
2003
This tour took us in a wide circle out and around San Antonio. We visited 18 BBQ joints, 2 brewpubs, 2 private residences, 1 brewery, 1 bar, and 1 low water crossing in 58.5 hours while covering over 650 miles.
The Barbecue Crew celebrated the end of the BBQ trail at a private residence directly on the Comal river. And
for the grand finale the "Fab4" bought 3 suitcases of beer, donned 2 mullets, rafted the Guadalupe, and then visited
several other miscellaneous bars (including the brewpub inside our hotel). We encountered primarily oak and
mesquite-smoked barbecue cooked using indirect heat. This year we found several places using gas-fired ovens,
electric smokers, and even one place that cooked directly over charcoal.
