Tried searching a thread comparing the two, but couldn’t find a thread specific. Going to Nola tomorrow and looking for a lunch spot. What you got?

I think it'd be hard to go wrong with either

Never been to Central City but you can’t go wrong with Blue Oak imo.

Blue Oak is the best BBQ in the city IMO. Only tried CCBBQ once, but I would put The Joint over them

Brisket better at CCBBQ
Ribs are a push
Wings better at BOB
Pulled pork a push
sides a push
Daily specials better at BOB
CCBBQ has both pork and beef burnt ends.
CCBBQ has a bigger menu
BOB has a better tap selection
Don't trust IPA's in a can at either location

Blue Oak is excellent.

Blue Oak and it's not even close.

My past two orders from CCBBQ (one UberEats and the other at the restaurant) left much to be desired.

Blue Oak is my go to

Piece of Meat is new and solid, as well. Not exactly traditional bbq, but good stuff.

What's wrong with CC? I love BO, but I've been wanting to hit up CC to try something different. This thread is making me second guess that desire.

I went to Central City a couple months ago, and I thought it was good. Really was impressed with the wings and burnt ends. Never been to Blue Oak, but will give it a try tomorrow.

both are good but the portion sizes are small at CC and the prices dont reflect that

blue oak has perfect portions for the price you pay imo

That's a great smoke ring. This is CC or BO? I always sit at a table at BO so don't really know what the bar looks like. If it's CC then they do a good smoke.

You were asking about CCBQ so that is what I posted.
