Last week Josh Winn and I were at InfoComm09 launching a sister company to In The Round called LiquidPixel Group.

Josh, also a bit of a foodie, and I have an intermittent quest on these trips to find the ultimate BBQ.

To date, our local favorite is Bubba's Q (http://www.bubbasq.com/) in Avon, OH (discovered on a church sound system install job).

InfoComm09, however, was in Olando, and it takes an extra effort to find good food (BBQ or otherwise). The landscape is littered with chains and tourist traps (all-you-can-eat steak for $9.99!).

However, with a little searching, and asking the right people (concierge's aren't always a guaranteed win - some really know their food, some are just trying to shuffle the tourists through) there are some gems to be found.

On our last night this past trip, we stumbled across a serious BBQ contender that we had discovered several years ago, but couldn't remember its location.

How do you know it's a contender? A few good indications.... 1) away from the tourist area, 2) looks more like a fishing shack than a restaurant, 2)picnic tables for seating, 3)make their own sauce (a requirement!), 4) crazy name.

Anyway, after a long week at 10pm at night we found the place just as they were closing and ordered two full slabs. So who are these mystery BBQ masters? Bubbalou's Bodacious BBQ (http://www.bubbalous.com).

Does it beat Bubba's? It's very close -- we may have to go back to Bubba's for further taste testing to know for sure!
