What Gates Bar-B-Q is known for
Founded in 1946 and still run by the same family, Gates greets every customer with its trademark 'Hi, may I help you?' before serving ribs and burnt ends beneath its red-roofed dining rooms. The tangy, vinegar-forward sauce that built the chain's reputation is bottled and shipped nationwide from the same recipe used at the original 19th and Vine storefront.
