| - Whoa!! What can I really say... this is a rare find. Usually I'm a little skeptical about great reviews on here but this place surpassed the reviews. It's a little hidden but once you find your way in, you're greeted with a warm welcome and if its your first time, they actually take the time to go over the menu with you.
I had the Pick 3 (chorizo, brisket, pulled pork) w/ the chili mac and jalapeƱo slaw.
The chorizo comes a little dark and looks a little dry but once you bite into it, you get a crunch with juicy spicy pork it was cooked to perfection. I'd prefer chorizo w/ a kick but this had just a bite not too spicy but overall good flavor.
The brisket was juicy and tender, moist with a crispy outer layer. Also it carried just enough fat to give it a natural smoky flavor, not overly fatty like some other places.
I Love BBQ but I'm more of a brisket person than a pulled pork person but the pulled pork I was very impressed with, crispy outside not overly dry, or wet. Perfect amount of juices to were you get a crunch from the outer layer and the inside is flaky and still moist enough to not be too chewy.
The chili Mac was Wow for me! The Mac was cheesy, they chili had a kick with just a hint of sweet. Perfect balance of texture with the soft macaroni elbow, salt/sweet of the chili, and topped off with gooey cheese. Great Side if you're really in the mood for comfort.
The slaw, I'm always a sucker for great slaw to balance out a hardy mean. The slaw did just that. Best slaw I've had in a while. Not too runny, nice crunch with the fresh cabbage and carrots, a little kick with pepperoni and pickled jalapeƱos, served cold. Again just great balance with the meats. Only regret is not ordering an extra order of the slaw.
Last but not least, the service. Extremely friendly service. Very informative and helpful when it comes to the food. Feels like you're at grandmas house. They really go out of there way to make sure you're satisfied with everything. Awesome Place!! Highly recommended!
