First time here, Thanks to Yelp.
TT-II is a small place that was slightly difficult to find, but when I arrived it was packed with folks. I was immediately greeted by the cheery counter worker and handed a menu. As I looked over the selections, I stumbled on the reason why it was packed - Monday's special side order was the black eyed pea cole slaw. The propreitor told me later that a church group regularly visits for a late lunch on Mondays and that I stumbled in the middle of their lunch time. As I gazed around, I also noticed they sell their own sauces behind the counter.
The menu had a nice variety of BBQ; both pork and beef, but also other things like catfish and vegetarian choices. I chose half a slab of pork ribs as thinking that going mainstream in a BBQ place would give me the best feel for the place. Each meal comes with two sides and I picked the Black eyed pea cole slaw (special of the day) and a the Creole potato salad (aka mustard) and backed it with a sweet Green Tea.
I went outside as the only available seating was there under the trellace. It was a beautiful, warm day and I enjoyed it.
The meal came quickly and I violated any rule of balance; the ribs went into focus and then out. Slurp. Yum. I poked at the black eyed pea cole slaw and descended into them. Remarkable hint of cilantro, then accents of chopped red onion popped in, followed by a light vinegar flavor. There was something red and finely flaked rolling around that I couldn't identify, but I'll guess pimento. Nothing overpowering but mighty tasty.
The Creole potato salad was good, standard fare but I was getting full.
