Abstract:
Fine furniture is made there. A famous artist, Bob Timberlake, lives and creates there. However, it is barbecue that carries Lexington's name across the country and around the world. Currently there are twenty-one barbecue restaurants, some in their third generation of owners, in the town of 20,000. Caldwell discusses barbecue, the restaurants, and the yearly Lexington Barbecue Festival which TRAVEL AND LEISURE magazine called “one of the top 10 food festivals in the USA.”

Abstract:
Paul \"Speedy\" Lohr opened Speedy's Barbecue as a drive-in in Lexington in 1963. Roy and Boyd Dunn worked at Speedy's since the beginning. Roy and a cousin bought the place from Lohr in the early 1970s. Boyd later bought out the cousin, and the two brothers have run it since 1978 as a restaurant--not a drive-in, though there is still a window where customers can order from outside. Speedy's is well-known for its large servings of Lexington style barbecue.
