We’ve been blessed with some very nice press and we are grateful!
You might have seen us on Food Network’s Best Thing I Ever Ate
with Michael Symon and Food Feuds, where we were named Best Ribs in St. Louis, BBQ Paradise on the Travel Channel and Bon Appétit Picks the Best on the Food Network.
Mike is also featured on two different episodes of Unwrapped and Playboy named us “Top 10 BBQ Joints” in America.
Watch Mike talk about 17th Street
and his competition memories of Memphis May
in these compelling audio slideshows produced by Mark Dolan, the BBQ Pilgrim.
This is a particularly good interview with Professor Salt and you can read and listen to this fun field trip we took with NPR's Jennifer Ludden.
Tune into our YouTube Channel to watch Mike explaining the intricacies of judging a whole hog at a barbecue competition and on the streets of New York City at the Big Apple Barbecue Block Party.
Here is a succinct factsheet about Mike and a factsheet about Amy that might be helpful for reporters. And here’s a list of other media who’ve covered Mike and 17th Street.
