Tampa Ranks High In Most BBQ Obsessed Cities
Grilling season has officially begun. With summer just around the corner, people spend more time outside cooking their favorite meals. Bid-On-Equipment just published a compilation that ranks the top cities obsessed with BBQ, and Tampa made the list.
BBQ is a very popular method of cooking across the country. It’s a style that can be done within your own home or specialized in a restaurant to feed the masses. “Many cities claim to have the best BBQ around, but we analyzed thousands of Google searches to figure out which ones really are a cut above the rest,” Bid-On-Equipment states to determine their rankings.
In total, 50 cities were identified and ranked in order. Then, this article highlights the top three states in the country, highlighting three specific restaurants in those states. Lastly, Bid-On-Equipment details the topic one step further in naming the best 20 cities for Korean BBQ. So, where does Tampa stand?
#3
Tampa ranked incredibly high, coming in at #3 out of 50. Only Atlanta, GA and Kansas City, MO ranked higher than Tampa. Tampa is listed as the 9th city for Korean BBQ. Bid-On-Equipment describes the difference with Korean BBQ by explaining how they use sweet sauces as opposed to dry rubs. In addition, “it’s also often cooked on a smaller grill at the center of the table for a unique dining experience,” they say.
To round out the Tampa BBQ accolades, Florida as a whole was recognized by Bid-On-Equipment as the third-best state in the country for BBQ.
