    Naseer and his brother, the Ahmad brothers, did one of my overall favorite things – combined American Southern fried chicken with the Mediterranean kabobs, shawarmas, curries, and sauces in their humble, no-frills Notos Southen Bites (or Notos Kabob Halal) in Laurel, MD. I’ve seen this done a couple of times, one such example, and I’m…

    Dickey’s Barbecue Pit is a nice, traditional barbecue chain where all the fresh meats are served with hearty sides on aluminum trays and paper that will help soak up part of the delicious mess. Nice smaller chain spot which usually means one of my most important factors – everything is efficient and streamlined, just the…

    Backyard Barbeque is a cozy spot in Arlington, VA for all your barbeque meat needs and even some healthy options like salsa and salads. Highly recommend this place. This was one of my first proper barbecue shoots and it was very refreshing to see some slow-cooked meats contrary to frozen burgers and same-old steaks and…
