This trip, Guy's checkin' out some unique 'que. In San Antonio, a 60-year old drive-in spices up the standards like burgers and smoked brisket with Thai heat. In Denver, a Native-American joint that's mixing tradition with innovation, from grilled chicken tacos on homemade flatbread to blueberry BBQ ribs. And in St. Petersburg, Fla., a decades-old general store using the grill and smoker combo to create a Guy favorite -- Texas hash.
Melissa d'Arabian makes a crowd-pleasing Southern meal that stays pleasingly under budget. Her BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwiches are the stars of the menu, doused in homemade barbeque sauce and piled high with tangy shredded carrots. On the side, Sweet Potato and Bacon Tots are a twist on the familiar potato nuggets, served with a creamy Mustard Dipping Sauce. To drink, Caramelized Banana Shakes are thick and creamy, and not to be missed.
