MIAMI LAKES, Fla. -- It's a humid, 88-degree day and the line outside at La Traila Barbeque is more than a hundred people deep an hour after doors opened for the first time on the Saturday before Memorial Day.
People happily waited (roughly two hours) with anticipation of something many had not tasted before. South Florida specializes in a variety of food, but premiere barbecue isn't one of them.
"What is brisket?" one female patron asked out loud, reading the digital menu on her phone. After ordering it, she fell in love. Another man walked out with a to-go plate, calling it the best BBQ he's ever had.
