Saddleback Barbecue on S. Washington Avenue, in Lansing, has been name one of the best in the country. Saddleback Barbecue found two reasons to celebrate Thursday.

Saddleback's owners and staff spent much of the day celebrating its one year anniversary, and late in the day, discovered the business had been named one of the best barbecue joints in all 50 states by Mental Floss.

A lot of good barbecue thrives in Michigan, but only one place is named after the British saddleback pig.  Saddleback, which opened last year in REO Town, smokes ribs, brisket, chicken, and pork shoulder and so much more.

Saddleback is located at 1147 S. Washington Ave. in Lansing, next door to REO Town Pub. Find more information in the Lansing State Journal.
