MIAMI, FL

We headed down to the heart of Miami for the Grand Opening of the highly anticipated La Traila Barbecue! 📍 This isn't just your average BBQ joint—it’s Texas craft meat with a massive Miami soul.

We sat down with some heavy hitters from the University of Miami Football team to talk shop and, more importantly, TASTE an absolute monster of a BBQ platter. 🍖💨 From the perfectly barked prime brisket and competition-level pork ribs to that insanely juicy smoked turkey, we’re breaking down why this spot co-founded by Mel Rodriguez and Isaiah McKenzie is a total game-changer for the Gables food scene.
