§ No. I · Field Notes

About West Shore BBQ.

West Shore BBQ specializes in authentic 100% wood-fired barbecue. They pride themselves on their traditional approach, avoiding pellets, soaked chips, or liquid smoke, and instead using only wood sustainably harvested from within the Adirondack Blue Line. The establishment is run by Jonathan, Meghan, and Sunshine Gravatt, who bring their deep love of southern BBQ to the Adirondack region. Having grown up in central Florida, where the craft of barbecue is a significant cultural tradition, they are dedicated to perfecting their offerings.
