Where to pick up smoked meats and sides across the Motor City

Aside from where to get the best coneys, few food genres in Detroit spark as much debate as barbecue. Is meat better rubbed with spices or soaked in sauce? Vinegar-based or tomato based? Vicki's or Parks? Below find a guide to some of the best spots for rib tips, brisket, and pulled pork that are currently open for carryout and delivery service right now.

Remember that whether visiting a business for carryout or to dine-in, everyone is required to be wearing a mask and following best practices for hand washing and social distancing reduce the risk of spreading the novel coronavirus. Don’t forget to tip generously and, please, stay home when you’re sick.

A number of metro Detroit restaurants have resumed dine-in service. The level of service offered is indicated on each map point. However, this should not be taken as endorsement for dining in, as there are still safety concerns: For updated information on coronavirus cases in your area, please visit the state of Michigan’s coronavirus tracker. Studies indicate that there is a lower exposure risk when outdoors, but the level of risk involved with patio dining is contingent on restaurants following strict social distancing and other safety guidelines.
