In this week's Readers' Choice poll, we're looking for the best local place to get barbecue for Memorial Day. Whether you're staying right here in Gilroy or perhaps trekking to a neighboring town, where do you like to go to get your 'cue on?
Here are some Gilroy BBQ joints that come to mind, but let us know in the comments if we're forgetting your fave place and we'll add it to the list:
- Famous Dave's BBQ
- Barbeque 152
- Lou's San Martin Meats in San Martin
- Dickey's Barbeque Pit in Morgan Hill
- Trail Dust BBQ in Morgan Hill
- Hot City Barbeque & Bistro in Los Banos
Some finger-lickin' out-of-town BBQers include Maverick BBQ Restaurant Lounge in Hollister, L & L Hawaiian Barbeque in San Jose and Aptos St. Barbeque.
Rate these businesses by taking our poll, and let your favorite BBQ joint know why you love 'em by posting in the comments section.
If you know of a piquant pit located nearby, you can vote for it at Watsonville Patch, Campbell Patch or Cupertino Patch.
The winner of this poll will be determined using a point system based on the most verified votes together with the best ratings in each business' directory listings. If there’s a tie, the business with the highest number of positive reviews in the listings and comments in the Readers' Choice article will be declared the winner.
Voting results posted in real time shall not be deemed official until Patch has reviewed and confirmed all of the votes.
Voting is open until 9 a.m. Friday and the winner, announced around noon, will receive a "Readers' Choice 2012" certificate.
So, which one is it going to be? Vote for your favorite place to get BBQ around town, especially for Memorial Day, and make sure to tell us in the comments section why it's the best.
