Best Non-Traditional Barbecue

Sam's BBQ Mutton

Our favorite Eastside barbecue joint is the one we sneak off to when we're dodging the spousal food police. Sam's routinely offers all the drippy, juicy barbecue you could ever dream of, but when they have mutton, it's a treat beyond words. The downside: you always leave Sam's with that heady, smoky aroma clinging to you. An astute nose can bust you for less.
