- Lewis Barbecue opened in June of 2016 and has made the Lowcountry fall in love with its Texas barbecue since then. Don’t worry — we still have a special place in our hearts for South Carolina-style BBQ. Pitmaster John Lewis has been named one of the best in the country for his mastery of smoking meats. Lewis focuses on the details (like waking up at 4 a.m. to tend to the fire) and has even welded his custom smokers. Check out the spot located at 464 N. Nassau St.
We want to extend a major “thank you” to all of you for participating in our bracket challenge over the past few weeks. We’ve had a blast seeing how the votes shook out, and we hope you did too.
