I live in Tampa but I am from Pittsburgh. I've probably tasted almost every BBQ place in tampa in my give years of living there and very few are better than the meal I had from showcase Bbq. At first I was skeptical because of some of the internet reviews but I am so glad I decided to stop in. I ordered the rib and chicken dinner and loved every bit of it. One of my gripes with some BBQ places is you can't taste the smoke on the food but you could taste every bit of it on this chicken.
Both the ribs and chicken were cooked to perfection and the sauce was just right. Sweet, smoky and not over sauced. Its a small shop in the middle of the hood but you can't tell by the taste of the food. Definitely getting another plate before I go back to Tampa.
