I call shenanigans. In Wisconsin they list Ono Kine Grindz in Wauwatosa. I have been living a few miles from Wauwatosa for almost 40 years and am a huge fan of eating out and BBQ. I never even heard of the place. Looking at the place using google street view, it is a convenience store that sells everything from shirts, snacks, canned drinks, and food on the side. There is a total of two or three tables in the "restaurant". It isn't even a BBQ place!
Ok, done ranting. Too bad they did not have any of my favorite BBQ places...I recommend Smoke Shack in Milwaukee.XL BGE and Kamado Joe Jr. -
Never heard of the place in Georgia but it’s only a half hour away. It’s not on any “best of” list I’ve seen. I’ll swing by in the next few days so I can call bvllsh!t on it.

Kat's in Texas? Never heard of it and I don't think its even ranked in the Texas Monthly Top 50. But I can tell you Snow's and Franklin's have both been ranked best in the world by multiple credible publications and I and many on here can attest to both them and Valentina's being among the best bbq we have ever had. If this was rated by yelp "Users" I wouldn't trust it whatsoever. I've seen people rank pizza hut as the best pizza they've ever had on there.

The best New Mexican food in Albuquerque, when I was stationed there, was hidden away in a bowling alley, you actually had to walk thru the kitchen to get to the dining room. They've expanded since then (was called Sadie's, iirc)._____________"Pro-Life" would be twenty students graduating from Sandy Hook next month

The biggest problem with a list like this is that Yelp reviews are all relative to the whereabouts/habits of the reviewer. To someone who rarely goes out, or who lives in an area with few options, Cracker Barrel might be a 5 out of 5 joint. To others, it might not scratch 1 out of 5.Southern California

Never heard of the place in NC but I did used to stop at this little place in Brunswick Georgia on the way to Jax. Best BBQ ever. They cooked it on a large flat rock over an open fire pit. From the pics on the wall every US president since the 30's thought so too. Sadly the Georgia pig is gone now.Xl bge ,LG bge, two 4' crusher cone fire pits. Weber Genisis gasser and

idk Barbeque in Tropic
I think I've been thru Tropic once, and its just east of Bryce Nat'l Park, which is south but much higher than me, so colder, and I'm actually impressed this place is open year-round, with seating just on two picnic tables, outside! A small, semi-permanent trailer place.
I've added it to my visit list.
For anyone visiting, my two reccs are Holy Smoke up here in north UT (fantastic food, meh environment) and Pat's in SLC (great food, envir, music, but kinda pricey). Disclaimer, I haven't hit a lot of BBQ spots in SLC; others here will have more accurate reccs._____________"Pro-Life" would be twenty students graduating from Sandy Hook next month

Seems more like a list of obscure places that paid for some not to subtle advertising.

Yelp. It's constantly rigged. Could you imagine the Michelin rating system being run by a bunch of Millennials whose only culinary qualifications were the amount of time they spent on their smartphones? If you can, you just imagined Yelp and this survey.______________________________________________I love lamp..

Havent been to Pats in years, but I remember it was good. -
I appreciate the post, and thank you for putting it on the forum.
I have had the experience to visit the place listed in Kentucky, and was more than just mildly surprised to see it listed as the best.
My Beautiful Wife and I went to a JJ Grey concert in Campbellsville Kentucky, and had dinner at Brothers a few months back.
Busy night, less than stellar service. I use Yelp frequently while traveling to find the local gems, and participate mostly by commenting on either really exceptional places, or the worst. MEH places never get comments from me. I chose not to comment via Yelp on our experience there.
My Beautiful Wife, said it was not as good as ours, if that means anything.
One of the reviews was right...."best restaurant in this town, and there is not much in this town."
When comparing their food to Hardee's Bacon BarBQue burger.....yeah you will get a 4.5 star rating.
However....compare it to the Q from Moma's in Saint Matthew's, not so much.
The Q is pretty good in Kentucky, from one end of the state to the other. Based on our meal there, it was good...but relative to other spots around the Commonwealth, Meh.
I am not recommending to those with a bucket list of trying the best q in the state to make a pilgrimage to Brother's, but if you are ever in Campbellsville, and drive through is not your thing, then yeah, try it out."Knowledge is Good" - Emil Faber

Looking forward to @DoubleEgger review.
