We revisited Backcountry Barbecue for a full experience, and they’ve earned a top spot at #4 on our BBQ rankings! Last time, we only tried a sandwich, but this time we went all-in and sampled their amazing wood-smoked meats.

One standout side is their Power Pellet Hushpuppies—crispy on the outside and soft inside, making them an absolute must-try. Plus, they’re one of the few BBQ joints open on Sundays, drawing a big crowd. If you’re craving some authentic, smoky BBQ to wrap up your weekend, Backcountry is the place to be!
