Let's build a BBQ bracket!

Aside from reminding me how superior college football is to basketball, March Madness has me thinking about building a bracket of 64 U.S. cities, so that readers can vote on which of the 64 has the best BBQ. Sooooo, let's do that. For a time, I will accept nominations for the pool of 64. Submit as many as you want via email, Twitter, and/or comment to this post. The top 64, by # of nominations, will make it into the pool. And, of course, the more nominated the city, the higher its seed. Not sure how long I will leave open the nomination period but at least long enough to get 64. So, have at it. NOMINATE!!!

Hard to follow up Jacob's list! Well though out seeding. Should probably throw in Spicewood for Opie's, but maybe that counts as Austin.
