| - Wife and I rode our bikes up to Cave Creek this past Sunday. We usually eat at one of the popular biker bars but today we thought we would try something a little different, and that's where Bryan's entered the picture.
Located in a secluded small "arts" strip mall, I had my doubts. Entered the restaurant and immediately the smell of BBQ permeated my nostrils. The place had a real nice vibe, the interior was rustic yet had a finished look. But enough of that, the food was why we were here. You get in line and order at the register. The wife ordered her standby of a beef brisket sandwich with one side. She ordered the Irish coleslaw. I ordered pulled pork with fries.
We elected to sit outside on the patio and waited for our name to be called. The patio is pet friendly.
But back to the food, both sandwiches were served on a toasted bun. My pulled pork was stacked high with a homemade BBQ sauce. This is not only a big sandwich, but a really tasted one, a true meal on a bun. Reminded me of Pork and Fork several years ago, not the skimpy sandwich they serve now. The bun alone was a major difference as well as the portion. Combine that with their crunchy, hot and plentiful. And the final touch, the pickled pepper was the best. Plus I got to eat my wife's pepper, double my pleasure. Almost forgot, the wife's brisket, served on the same toasted bun, topped with Bryan's BBQ sauce. Again it was huge, moist and definitely a meal on a bun. Her side was the Irish coleslaw, nothing exceptional here but still enjoyable, a 3 at best.
Bottom line, we will be back and plan to share our newest find with friends. Oh can't forget, they serve Frog Legs on Fridays!!!!!
