| - Located in the heart of downtown Brampton is Portugese inspired Sul Irmaos Smokehouse. They are known for their sandwiches, and boast a co-sign on "You Gotta Eat Here" with Canadian John Catucci.
I expected an epic sandwich, but was slightly disappointed. Service was average. It took a while for menus and waters to arrive once we sat down, and our table was still dirty. The waitress was polite and eventually came to wipe off our table, but I found the place to be under-staffed for a Saturday evening.
I was stuck between their pulled pork Beanasauras and the Beefeater. I opted for the latter, as I read a negative review about them using frozen mac and cheese bites.
The Beefeater: brisket, deep fried okra shrimp crunches, collard greens, house gravy, caesar dressing and creole mustard (10.95) was meh.
The brisket was thin as cold cuts, and not the main component of the sandwich. The sandwich seemed to be filled with mostly the deep fried okra shrimp crunches which were just OK.
I enjoyed the bread used for the sandwich, however I just did not find the proportions to be right. I would have preferred much more brisket, and thicker cuts too, for it to be an epic sandwich.
To make matters worse, they charge $1 for hot sauce... NO thanks. I am not sure if it was homemade or not, but all I really wanted was tobasco, or sriiracha.
I will likely not return in the future.
