St. Augustine BBQ: Uptown
San Marco Avenue north of the City Gate, where the foot traffic thins out and the Victorian houses take over, running up past the Fountain of Youth to the roundabout at the Vilano Bridge.
A barbecue cafe inside the Fountain of Youth parking lot, serving BBQ, wraps and subs with beer, wine and ice cream. Its own site tells the story of European roasting meeting Indigenous smoking, which is a fair amount of history for a lunch stop.
The north location of Smokin' D's, on US-1: meats smoked six to fifteen hours and sold until they run out, because the pit refuses to sell yesterday's meat. Five regional sauces plus a datil pepper sauce from peppers grown on site. Check its latest official hours before you drive over.
