| - I came to Proper Pig with a group of 10 Yelpers to try out some tasty barbeque and it was absolutely delicious!
It's a nice little place with tasteful wood décor, nice lighting, ample seating, and a few TVs mounted on the walls. You just walk up to order from the counter with a blackboard menu behind it.
It was pretty busy at the time, as it was their grand opening week, they were selling out of some items, and the line was half way to the door! Luckily, Sheena W had messaged Shane, one of the owners, in advance and mentioned that we would be coming with a large group, so they prepared a nice sampler platter for us. Shane was really cool and made all of us feel welcome in his restaurant.
We all sat a communal table in the middle of the dining room and Shane brought out the goods. The sampler tray was huge and it included a little bit of everything! The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender and the brisket was nicely smoked and juicy with not a lot of fat! So damned good! The barbecue sauce provided at each table was really good paired well with the meat. The smoked turkey breast was surprisingly cooked really well and not dried out which can easily happen if you don't cook it right. The pulled pork was nicely seasoned and made for a nice little sandwich using the platter of white bread, onions, and pickles that were provided. We also had some tasty sides of potato salad, baked beans, and coleslaw and then some banana cream pudding dessert cups!
For beverages, they have a soda fountain, an iced tea machine, and also a nice selection of local bottled brews.
We were stuffed and very satisfied at the end. Definitely some of the best barbecue I've had in a loooong time. I'll definitely be back! Thanks again, Shane!
