In a world full of food, barbecue stands on its own. Each pit-master is dedicated to a certain style. Every person, city, and even state have their own way of doing things. All across the U.S., nothing tastes quite as good as some sweet and saucy BBQ. From pork ribs and steaks to hamburgers and rib eyes, there is a preference.

From Missouri to the Carolinas, back to California, we've covered the whole southern part of the continental United States. No two tastes are alike. Who would have thought that southern California preferred a dry rub over barbecue sauce, or that a top side in Alabama was pickles? Weird! And that isn't all. Read on to learn more about your favorite barbecue styles!
