Switchback Smokehouse

Head to the foothills for this creekside barbecue joint. Your jaunt will be rewarded with specialties like Switchback's Montreal-style brisket, which is cured with spices before being smoked. Other surprises await on the menu, too, like rich duck breast, housemade bacon, chicken legs and smoked salmon. Buy them by the pound, butcher shop-style, or try one of the generously stacked sandwiches. You won't regret the drive.
