I finally found the time to make a visit to this resto and brought along three friends to indulge in what Hogtown Smoke has to offer.
The service was friendly and relatively quick given that the resto was packed with hungry patrons. The smell of BBQ permeating the humid summer air that day.
As a group of four, we decided to order the following items to share across the table that would represent a small cross-section of the menu:
Brisket Burnt Ends
Hogtown Poutine
Create-Your-Own-Platter: Back Ribs, Spare Ribs, and Brisket
Smoked Brisket Sandwich with Sweet Potato Fries
If you are a first timer then I would def recommend getting a sampler create-your-own-platter and I really enjoyed both the brisket and back ribs. Both were really soft and had lots of the smokey bbq flavour. This platter is potentially enough for two people depending on your hunger level.
The poutine lived up to it's name and was just smothered in gravy which is never a bad problem to have. Fries weren't soggy and held up well
The four table-side sauces they offered complimented the items well and I enjoyed the Hogfather (hot) sauce but did not try the mango habanero sauce (I am not crazy!).
Enjoyed my time here and look forward for another opportunity to return. :-)
