BBQ in Orlando, FL

My favorite in all of Florida is Charlie and Jake's. They have
2 locations one in Melbourne and one in Satellite Beach. They brew their own
beer and the barbecue is excellent. I have never had a bad meal and we will
drive and hour and ten minutes to go eat there. The atmosphere is quite nice and
very clean and the wait staff nice and attentive.
The famous beer hunter Michael Jackson had this to say about
Charlie and Jake's:
"We had lunch at Charlie and Jake's Brewery & Grille (6300 N. Wickham
Rd), in a shopping strip at the Sun Tree development, on the north edge of
Melbourne. This brewpub grew out of an earlier, "hole in the wall"
pork-barbecue restaurant run by Charlie Johnson and his then girlfriend Jake
(Jacqueline).
Prospective visitors should be warned to order only the small plate of barbecue.
It is a hefty portion, and comes with hush puppies (corn fritters, flavoured
with onion) and a choice of two vegetables, ranging from black-eyed peas through
okra to turnip greens."

The next time you're in the Orlando area do yourself a real big favor and Drop by Brian's
Bar-B-Q at 2415 Aloma Avenue in Winter Park, Florida. They opened in mid-December and have
attracted a host of loyal customer already. Brian's competition team won the ribs event in
November of last year with a perfect score at the KCBS contest in Brooksville, Florida.
This Spring they took 3rd in ribs at the MIM contest in Winter Park, Florida. Needless to
say ribs, both spares and baby backs are high on the list in their restaurant. They also
serve sliced pork and one of the biggest pork sandwiches you'll ever tie into. They use
smoked chicken in the chicken salad on the salad bar and if you don't want to just stand
there and graze you just don't know good food. They put out a couple of pretty good steaks
for those folks that just can't agree with the old "Pork Fat Rules" axiom. Drop
in and give them a try, you'll like em. MoSmoke
