Silver Spur Texas Smokehouse BBQ, 13275 Watertown Plank Rd., Elm Grove, however, seems unafraid.

Every year, two Irish bars duke it out to be the number one pick from the OnMilwaukee.com readers. This year, the top prize once again goes to the venerable County Clare, and its traditional foe, Paddy's Pub, finishes second. Meanwhile, the OnMilwaukee.com editors pick Brocach.
