Ribs are a must.
Tender, moist and smoky, these were quite good.
SweetWater Brewing Hash Brown India Style Brown Ale sits in front. The darker Avery Ellie’s Brown Ale hides in back. They met our cravings on a cold, rainy day. Both are very drinkable. And, we’ll be sure to seek out both of these again.
The Southern Pickle Fry
We loved the pickled red cherry pepper, jalapeños and whole okra. Unfortunately, the pickle chips dominated the very generous sheet pan full of all things fried. We were constantly scavenging for the peppers and okra. The pickle chips were a bit overpowering. So, we neglected them for the most part.
Brussel Sprouts With Bacon
Crispy… delicious… period.
Smoke House Corn On The Cob
1/2 Chicken With Smoked Gouda Mac & Cheese
and Collards
The chicken was tender and mostly pleasant. But, it was a bit too wet with sauce for us. The mac and cheese was dominated by a creamy sauce.
We enjoyed the (black) peppery Hog Wash Sauce.
Hog Wash and Deep South are the two sauces that sit on the table. The others are offered on the side with your plates. Deep South was quite sweet (too sweet for us) and tomato-y.
If we’re in the area, we’d return for another round of ribs and brussel sprouts.
(We made 3 meals out that full rack of ribs up there.)
