I was going to share the best bbq in SF here, but decided not to. The really good stuff in cities, those who know about it, we keep it a secret.
Edit: what I meant by this comment was to emphasize a key distinction between country bbq and city bbq that was neglected by the article: country bbq is by definition distant from the large bbq-loving population. So there may be equally good city bbq joints, but there are a number of (individual) parties in whose interest it is to keep them secret.
