Barbecue Brisket

If Barbecue Brisket isn't the champ of the Greatest American Food of All Time, then I don't know what is. Picture this: hours of smoking low and slow, until it's as tender as a whisper in a pillow factory. It's the culinary equivalent of a slow dance at a Texas honky-tonk. Fans? Oh, they're just casual folks sporting minor BBQ sauce stains, debating whether the bark or the juicy center steals the show. It's not just food; it's a smoky love affair on a plate. Pick a side? More like, pick a napkin!
