After an exhaustive eating tour of 27 barbecue eateries across the state of Michigan (including two stops in Washtenaw County), MLive statewide entertainment reporter (and self-described "aspiring eater") John Gonzalez is ready to crown Michigan's Best BBQ.

After taking the weekend to digest his findings, Gonzo has determined his choices for three categories: a ranked top 10, a list of rising stars, and "the best of the rest."

Both Washtenaw County barbecue destinations he visited made his "rising stars" list. Red Rock Downtown BBQ was called out for "quality food with great word of mouth." And Satchel's brisket was noted for being tender and top-notch.

You can find all the details on Gonzo's post on our media partner MLive's site.
