Sonny's Voted Best BBQ in America!

[Zinhead]

Unbelievable but true! Another great reason to pick UF; they have three locations in Gainesville.

For nearly 50 years, Sonny’s has been serving real-deal Southern-style barbecue. The barbecue joint got its start in Gainesville, Florida, when Sonny Tillman and his wife Lucille opened the first restaurant in 1968; they began to franchise nine years later. Today, there are more than 150 locations across eight states. Pork is served pulled or sliced; ribs are served wet, dry, St. Louis-style, or baby back; and all the meats, including beef brisket, chicken, and turkey breast, are smoked for up to 12 hours at each location. A bottomless salad bar, burgers, wings, pulled pork egg rolls, sides including baked beans and three cheese macaroni and cheese, and desserts like homemade fruit cobbler and banana pudding round out the menu. So congratulations, Sonny’s, America voted and you’re its favorite barbecue chain!

Too bad Skeeters closed.

I recently took my daughter and her roommate out to the Sonny’s on Waldo road, good stuff.

Skeeters was awesome (especially at 3 am in the morning).
