Barbecue Restaurants in Nebraska

Our guide to barbecue restaurants in Nebraska

American barbecue means meat cooked low and slow over wood smoke, and every region has its own rules. Central Texas is about beef brisket with a simple salt-and-pepper rub; Kansas City does a bit of everything with a thick sweet sauce; Memphis is known for ribs, wet or dry; and the Carolinas are pork country, with vinegar or mustard sauces.

Many barbecue joints sell meat by weight until it runs out, which is why the best places can have lines before opening and “sold out” signs by mid-afternoon.
