The Joint
New Orleans, Louisiana
When you're cooking up barbecue this good, you don't need a clever name. In less than a decade, The Joint has become synonymous with great food — a difficult task, given it's location. On the menu are ribs, pulled pork, brisket, Chaurice Cajun sausage, and chicken, with obligatory home-style sides like slaw, potato salad, baked beans, and mac & cheese. Really like the flavors? Grab a bag of rib sprinkle or butt rub to take home.
