The motto of Bubbalou's Bodacious B-B-Q seems to be, "If it's meat, smoke it." The Winter Park outpost is the original, and the rickety red shack decorated with hot pink piglets packs in the crowds for hearty platters piled high with smoked meat.

The menu offers everything from sausage, lamb and chicken to ribs, sliced pork, beef, gizzards and liver. Platters come with crinkly fries, savory baked beans and coleslaw. You can doctor up your dish with a myriad of hot sauces -- consider yourself warned about the bottle marked "Killer." The corn bread, crumbly and sweet, is not to be missed. For a taste of everything, order the Bubbalou's special -- a trio of spare ribs, pork and chicken served with a heap of side orders. Takeout is popular with the lunch crowd, and there's a brisk business for to-go orders at dinnertime, too. For a no-hassle, reasonably-priced feast, order various smoked meats, individually packed with appropriate side dishes and a stash of buttery bread, and spread out on your table at home for an easy, self-service meal.
