Description:

Hannah Q’s is another BR favorite. They have an excellent spice rub and their BBQ sauce is excellent. Located in several locations throughout Baton Rouge, the mid city location is cute and family friendly. I also think their BBQ Jambalaya and pork roast with rice and gravy make it a staple.
