There are certain regions of the country that come to mind when conjuring up visions of delicious barbecue: the South, of course, and also places like Kansas City and Texas. But Ohio? Not so much. However, we’re on a mission to change that, because the Buckeye State is a bonafide barbecue hotspot! And in Ohio, Montgomery Inn is one of the best in the state, serving up crave-worthy barbecue since 1951.
Located in the charming little town of Montgomery, Ohio, there is a restaurant with a legendary barbecue reputation.
