SAN ANTONIO — Some of the nation's best barbecue can be found at a restaurant in San Antonio.

The Granary 'Cue & Brew, 602 Avenue A, was selected as the nation's fourth best barbecue joint in the recently released book, "The 100 Best Barbecue Restaurants in America." Author Johnny Fugitt, a freelance writer from Missouri and an officer in the U.S. Navy Reserve, visited 365 barbecue restaurants in 48 states in an effort to compile his list.

His top pick for his non-traditional barbecue cuts category was the Granary's Beef Clod, which is prepared with coffee quinoa crunch, tomato caramel, pickled celery and cornbread.

Owned and operated by brothers Tim and Alex Rattray, the pair take an elevated approach to Texas barbecue and brew a range of craft beer in house.
