Alabama's BBQ White Sauce || Food/Groups

Alabama doesn’t always get its due on the map of U.S. barbecue. From the Carolinas to Memphis, pretty much everyone in Bama’s neighborhood has a bigger BBQ profile nationwide. But the Yellowhammer State does have one undeniable claim to barbecue fame: northern Alabama white sauce. Like the state itself, this Alabama BBQ White Sauce is a bit of a barbecue outsider: a white mayonnaise concoction designed not for brisket or pork, but for regular ol' chicken. In northern Alabama, the white sauce’s legacy is as complex as it is delicious. It's now a staple in college football tailgates across the state and one that the Alabama Crimson Tide in particular can't get enough of. So we traveled all over Alabama to get the scoop on this misunderstood sauce, starting with Bib Bob Gibson's, the place that created it almost a century ago. Roll Tide!

Maryland’s Beloved Chesapeake Bay Crabs || Food/Groups

The Chesapeake Bay is home to over a third of all blue crabs harvested in the entire country, and no offense to Virginia, but it’s Maryland that lives Chesapeake blue crab to the fullest. They love it hard shell, soft shell, and pretty much every way in between. After being pushed to the brink of extinction a few decades ago, Maryland’s favorite crustacean is thriving on the bay once again thanks to the watermen, scientists, and regular ol’ crab-loving Marylanders bent on preserving the blue crab population for the next generation.

Long Island Has NY's Freshest Oysters || Food/Groups

New York has almost 130 miles of coastline, and pretty much all of it is found on Long Island, a hulking spine of glacial moraines that stretches from Brooklyn & Queens all the way east to Montauk. And from one end of this enigmatic isle to the other, a single type of shell-encased coastal inhabitant has fueled a century of industry, innovation, and culinary tradition here: Long Island oysters.  In this episode of Food/Groups, we road-tripped "out east" from our Manhattan headquarters to rendezvous with born-and-raised Long Islanders who have deep connections to the slippery shellfish. From diving for wild oysters by hand on the North Shore and sustainably raising them on ocean-cleaning reef farms in the Great South Bay, to sucking the damn things down with some local beers, generations of Long Islanders have made mollusks a delicious way of life.

Rockaway Surfer's Unexpected Thriving Food Culture || Food/Groups

New York City is hardly a remote surfing hamlet, but it is home to one: the Rockaways, a peninsula of beachfront neighborhoods where Atlantic waves meet the shockingly beautiful shores of residential Queens. Out here at the end of the A line, a cohort of year-round surfers live, work, and play. Just like the other 8.5mil people who call NYC home, they like to eat -- and well. In this episode of Food/Groups, we met up with die-hard disciples of this unlikely beach town to talk about how -- and why -- it's become such a culinary hotbed.

Tampa Bay's Iconic Cuban Sandwich || Food/Groups

When you think about Cubans in Florida, you probably don’t think of Tampa. But you should! Sure, today, Miami has the biggest concentration of Cuban-Americans in the state -- and the country, for that matter. But back before Miami was even a city, it was here, in Tampa, that the cigar industry boomed and the iconic Cuban sandwich was born. You know: soft Cuban bread, shredded pork, glazed ham, Swiss cheese, pickles, mustard, and -- as is custom ONLY in Tampa -- Genoa salami. And while Miami basks in its well-deserved reputation as the epicenter of modern Cuban America, 400,000 Tampans patiently wait for their town to get its historic Cubano due. So we came to Cigar City to do just that.
