Chasing BBQ: Kentucky, Illinois, and St Louis Meats & Spices
On the second-to-last leg of his Chasing BBQ journey, Savory founder Mike Johnston visited three different barbecue regions, each with its own special take on barbecue. Mike sampled barbecue from Kentucky, Illinois, and St. Louis, Missouri, each region showcasing its own signature style of ‘cue, but also dabbling in their versions of classics from around the country.
