| - Tried Rollin Smoke tonight on friend's recommendation. It was okay. The sauce was good (on the thin side as you'd expect for this style) with just a hint of sweet.
I had the duo plate with brisket, hot link and jalapeƱo coleslaw. The brisket was good, flavor and smoke wise. The hot link was the worst I've ever had, it had so much connective tissue that I couldn't chew it and ended up looking like the clown with the never ending scarf being pulled out of my mouth (eeewwww, and not attractive, right???), The coleslaw was fairly flavorless; as I would eat it the heat would gradually build but nothing other than that.
Husband had the pit special; brisket, pulled pork, spare ribs, hot link, hush puppies, mac & cheese, and collard greens. He agreed with my assessment on the brisket and the hot link. He liked the hush puppies but felt the mac & cheese and the collard greens were WAY over cooked and lacking flavor.
Sister had the pulled piggy with hush puppies. She said the pork was moist, tender, and had a good flavor. She liked the hush puppies but they were a touch spicy for her.
It was worth a try but I can't say that we'll be back.
