Nevada Restaurant Praised for Its ‘Extensive Menu’
Winter isn’t really barbecue time, but it’s always a good time to enjoy delicious barbecue, even if it’s colder outside. Plus, Nevada doesn’t get as cold as much of the U.S. In any case, Nevada has some fantastic places to get your barbecue fix. Whether you’re eating at a locally-owned restaurant that’s been there for years, brand new restaurant that you’re trying out for the first time or chain spot that just happens to have good grub, it’s always an appropriate time to enjoy some delicious BBQ. Now, one Massachusetts barbecue spot has been named the best for its delicious food.
Best BBQ in Nevada
The food experts at Love Food have put together a roster of the best places to eat BBQ across the U.S. “American barbecue is up there with the best in the world, and the variety of styles between each state means there’s always more to discover,” they state in the feature. “But with so many standout restaurants and brilliant BBQ spots all over the country, it can be hard to know where to begin.” That’s where they come in. They ranked the best spots to get BBQ based on “genuine user reviews” from a favorite of platforms. Then, they determined the best.
So, which Nevada spot made the cut for the best barbecue in America? It’s Fox Smokehouse BBQ at 930 Nevada Way in Boulder City. In the piece, Love Food notes that Kelly and Dan Fox, who own the place, “were competitive pitmasters before they opened their first barbecue spot.” They add that the couple keeps their recipes top secret. “Diners are spoiled for choice with the extensive menu, but most recommend sticking to the true barbecue classics: ribs, burnt ends, and pulled pork,” they add. So, if you’re in the area and looking for some good grub, you may want to get Fox Smokehouse on your radar.
Barbecue is a very American tradition, but it started with Caribbean roots. According to a feature on barbecue in Smithsonian Magazine, “The original styles of barbecue are thought to be those that originated in the easternmost colonies, like the vinegar-based “whole hog” barbecue found in Virginia and North Carolina.” They add that, “the technique of adding sauce to the meat as it cooks came from British colonists who incorporated the idea of basting to preserve the juices within the meat with the Caribbean barbecue technique.” So, that’s a bit of tasty barbecue history for your mind, in case it ever pops up during a random trivia night.
