    Q recommendations in the twin cities

    ZZQ in Eagan, MN is my 1st and best choice. Tell Zak the owner that Troy sent you! Q Fanatic BBQ is decent and has been on Triple D; ate there many times. I've heard good things in regards to Big Daddy BBQ as well as StormKing BBQ; but haven't tried them personally.
