Here is what I have so far from both boards, let me know if it needs any corrections or additions. fell free to give me comments on any listed. I tried to leave off locations for the chains. I will just include their website to the master list. However if a chain has a better location(Like Golden Rule or Dreamland)let me know.
I will start a new thread with the interactive map in a few days. I have this all on a spreadsheet, so it will be much easier to upload
Archibald and Woodrow's 4215 Greensboro Ave Tusculosa 35405
Archibald's 1211 Mlk Jr Blvd Northport 35476
BBQ Shack Dothan .try the smoked chicken salad their BBQ pork is ok. But they don't serve beer and I don't trust a BBQ joint that doesn't sell beer.
Big Daddy's BBQ Warrior
Bob Gibson's
Bob Sykes Bessmer
Boneyard BBQ HWY 75 Albertville
Brads Oxford
Brick Pit 5456 Old Shell Rd Mobile 36608 By far my favorite. I consider it the best in Mobile. Love their pulled pork
Brick Pit
Bunyans Bar-B-Que 901 West College St. Florence 35630 for their hot slaw and hot dogs is a must have before you die
Butts to Go Pell City It is a Texaco Quick Shop and gas station.

Dreamland
Fat Boy's BBQ Prattville
Fat Girl's BBQ US-82 Billingsly
Fat Man's BBQ Pell City BBQ is decent, but the cheeseburger is awesome.
Full Moon
Full Moon original downtown Birmingham; barbecue pork sandwhich w/ chow chow, and the vinegar based coleslaw on the sandwhich; best aspect of Full Moon is the chocolate chip cookies
Georgia Pit 5492 Highway 280 Birmingham Cowboy's gas station parking lot. It is called the Georgia Pit and they smoke with pecan. Their meat (pulled pork, conecuh sausage and ribs) is usually outstanding and the spicy sauce is awesome
Good ole Boys Sylacauga
Green Top 7530 Old U.S. 78 Dora 35062
Hawg-n-Dawgs Ozark
Hook's Troy
Hook's Opp best potato salad d I've ever had; make great pork and rice
Hoo's Q 101 15th St Tusculosa 35401 my least favorite... tastes remotely like the kind of bbq you get in a tub at a grocery store, but I don't think there's such a thing as bad bbq
Jim and Nick's
Jim n Nicks love their habanera bbq sauce
Jim's bbq on highway 82
Johnny's BBQ Culman
J's Hole In The Wall Bryant
Ken's
Ken's BBQ Pinson better breakfast IMO and that has gotten them on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives before, but worth a mention
Lanies Selma
Lawlers loaded bake potato is the best with a slice of pecan pie.
Lewis Heavenly Tusculosa
Little Nick's Huntsville
Lloyd's Vestavia ore down home cooking but great BBQ and ribs
mary's bbq gurley
Meat Boss 5401 Cottage Hill Rd Mobile 36609 They're only open ~10 hours a week but they've got some good stuff
Mike And Ed's Auburn
Miss Linda's trailer Greenville
Miss Myra's Pit Bar BQ Vestavia Hills Stay away from the ribs though. Best smoked chicken in the state IMO)
Moe's prominent mustard taste in sauce... strange ribs, but pulled pork good
Ms Myra's BBQ Cahaba Heights Home of the original white sauce
Natch's Childersburg Their smoked turkey is really good.
Old Greenbrier Madison
Phil's Eufuala
Porky's Pride 2516 Walker Chapel Rd Fultondale
Pottery Grill 13751 U.S. 11 Cottondale
Pruitt's BBQ Rainbow Dr(I believe) Gadsden like their catfish more than I like the BBQ.

Ray's BBQ Atalla 35954
Rusty's BBQ Leeds Probably the best ribs I've had (dry rub, smoked 24 hrs)
Sam's BBQ Atlanta Hwy Montgomery Lunch only, get there early or risk missing out. Very limited menu includes pork, sausage, bbq beans, slaw and fries.
Saucy Q Mobile
Saw's You haven't lived till you've had the pork and greens; The sweat tea brined chicken sandwich is the shite. Must have.; Pretty good selection. Boudin was actual boudin
Sho'-Nuff BBQ Alex City big sandwich and stew was hard to beat
Simmons BBQ Guntersville pulled pork so good you can literally feel your arteries clogging. Their sides kind of suck so I stick to the sandwich when I eat there
Singletons 4220 Huntsville Rd Florence 35630
Sledges BBQ 45 golden Pond Rd Florence 35630 best brisket I have ever ate. Good pulled pork and ribs, the Brunswick stew is legit; The brisket sandwich is an OMG experience
Smokin on the Boulevard Florence They were selected as the best ribs in the state by al.com
Tate's BBQ Scottsboro really good if you like a vinegar based sauce. It's a pull up spot with no inside. The place looks like it should be condemned but is actually one of my favorites
The Barbecue House Auburn
The original Golden Rule 2504 Crestwood Blvd Irondale Good chopped pork, real fries, good baked beans. You can eat, pay, and be back on the road in 25 minutes
The Smokehouse Millbrook
Thomas Pit BBQ 7929 Hwy 72 Madison 35758 Best BBQ in the area IMO.
Top Hat 8725 U.S. 31 Hayden 35079 At one time, it was the best BBQ in the state. Not sure any more.
Triple R BBQ Scottsboro
Twix 'N Tween Centreville

We hve a place in Sylacauga on highway 280 called "Good ole Boys." They operate on the half of a big older Texaco station. Best in town. During game day AU folks are stopping in droves to get their fixings. We appreciate aubies spending money in our fair town.

Miss Myra's Pit Bar BQ In Vestavia Hills(Stay away from the ribs though. Best smoked chicken in the state IMO)
R&B BBQ in Lincoln(Horrible building for a restaurant, smokes up easily)
Both have great desserts as well, though there is a good ice cream shop to the left of Miss Myra's named Doodle's.

Jim's bbq on highway 82 is the best bbq in the state fwiw.

You haven't lived till you've had the pork and greens from saws.
Lived in Decatur for a while. Big bobs is shite. Whitts is much better.
Lots of close 2nd place runnings. But saws is numero uno

Dad works for the depot in Anniston, someone he worked with told him about it. Got to put some work in to find it.
Had the chicken and a big arse piece of cake, that table of desserts is glorious. Glad they had scrambled burgers too, one of the best places that served them closed. Believe it was somewhere between Eastaboga and Riverside, a trailer and small white building.
