  • In Northport, Alabama, the family-owned, family-run Archibald’s BBQ has been feeding the local community its signature pit-smoked ribs and sliced pork butt for 55 years. In this short film by Wes Wages, Armosa Films, and the Southern Foodways Alliance, the family behind Archibald’s - George Archibald Jr., his sister Paulette Washington, and her son Woodrow Washington - take center stage.

    This is on my bucket list. Alabama has the best BBQ in the country and that is a fact.

    I love Archibald's! Grew up in Tuscaloosa and this was by far my favorite place, such a nice family.

    This place is great. Usually filled with people, residents, football fans and college kids. We all get along, talking, watching the game inside and out, laughing and eating.

    Been going there for years. Bama has great BBQ all over the place but in Tuscaloosa this is the spot. The sauce is awesome. Vinegar based and doesn't kill the flavor of the meat but enhances it. They do it right.

    Archibald’s is so much better than Dreamland which gets all the publicity.

    you know when you have the owner of a very well known and fantastic bbq joint on a video talking about a spot (archibalds) that its straight up legendary.. after moving away from t-town after graduating i once woke up in nc and drove 6 hours to tuscaloosa just to get 2 cups of that sauce and some ribs... no joke... best sauce ever.. half rack ,a cup of sauce and half a loaf of white bread

  • @TardRepellent
    @TardRepellent 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    the real key is their sauce. it's a thin vinegar base and it's so tasty you could sip it like soup. I'm here just hoping they slipped up and mentioned some ingredients. good flavor BBQ but I don't like how they chop/slice instead of pull

    I am a Chicagoan and have no allegiance to a cooking style, but I do love BBQ and reading all i can about it. I have had a revelation: Barbecue is a dish, not a cooking style. Barbecue, strictly speaking, is slow-cooking a whole hog over a pit. The various other styles of the south, like slow-cooked ribs, boston butt, and chicken, are related to Barbecue and can use its name. However, the central Texas style slow cooking is not Barbecue at all; it has no historical ties to barbecue and is only related by way of using a similar cooking technique.
