   You spelled "and" wrong.  There is neither an "o" nor an "r" in the word   
   "and".  When it comes to different types of BBQ the and beat the or   
   every time.   
      
   But there's no need for going to the native locale.  I've had Philly   
   cheesesteak in Pasadena, CA that was as good as the ones in   
   Philadelphia, PA.

   Of course there's going to be decent BBQ in NYC.  It just isn't a native   
   food there just like so many other excellent food types available there.   
   Those unbelievably good BBQ ducks hanging in the window of some places   
   in Chinatown definitely count as good BBQ and I've had it in Manhattan.   
   But I've also had the same recipe in the Chinatown near downtown   
   Chicago and it's just as good here.

   Better still pastrami.  And some of that native recipe clam chowder   
   with the assorted veggies in it. Fabulous.
