| - I read the Yelp reviews, and to be honest I wasn't expecting this to be that great...but wow! This is the best barbecued pulled pork I've had in Cleveland, period! First, the place is like a BW3's in the way that you order, you place your order, give your name and they bring the food out. You fill your own soft drinks...they also have beer.
The dining room is clean and spacious, music is playing and tv's are in but it is not loud. You can have a conversation. There is also an outdoor seating area that is comfortable.
Ok, now for the food: I ordered a pulled pork sandwich, which was on a grilled bun. The bun was fresh and was very tasty in its own. The pulled pork was sauce less (there's bottles of different sauce that you can add yourself, including a cherry based one that's really different-in a good way!) and it was not fatty. It was the perfect texture and wasn't dried out nor soggy. With this, I got an order of onion rings-these were amazing! Hot, crispy, and the onions inside weren't soggy.
My husband ordered "the dawg", which was a quality hotdog wrapped in crisped bacon and topped with jalapeƱos and hush puppies. It also was topped with a creamy sauce of some sort. He liked it a lot. He got Mac and cheese as a side...this is a creamy (not oily) white cheddar version that was very flavorful without being spicy, oily, or too salty. This is something my child would eat, yet adults would also enjoy it.
My sandwich was huge, there was a lot of meat on it...my husband ended up eating half :).
Now, the best part is the sauces. They're named after presidents (see photo). The mustard was fantastic, and the cherry one was surprisingly good. These sauces are not the type of bottled bbq that's typically found in your local grocery store, they're different and they're fantastic.
We still can't we over how good this food was. :)
