Altman's is the best around.
Sonny's is good.
Oakwood has good ribs but the beef is as bland as grandma's boiled roast.
No smoke ring and machine sliced. The side dishes are weak too.
I guess you all ain't from Texas.

I'll second I- Barbeque on 441 just south of 466A. It's really good.

Mrs. Trap and I both agree that Sonny has the best pulled pork and Oakwood has the very best baby back ribs.

I like the beef at Oakwood. Actually is eye of the round that Sonny's used to have before they went to cheaper brisket. I do not put sauce on it and it is fine like that, not dried out. My wife likes the baby back ribs at Oakwood better than Sonny's.

Oakwood without a doubt! Their chopped pork platter with lima beans and fried okra, heaven!
