| - I wandered into Double S BBQ with my husband on a chilly evening, excited to try some barbecue. It was cute with rustic decorations inside. There were several tables available, with a few people watching a football game on TV, so we were seated quickly. Our server was friendly and chatted with us throughout our meal.
We had a couple of Spotted Cows, and perused the menu. There are options for your traditional meat plates with sides like most BBQ spots, as well as some sandwiches and a few Cajun options. We chose different brisket plates, and the server described the two different sauces and chatted with us while we waited briefly. The food was out very quickly!
My star review mostly stems from the food, which wasn't the greatest. The brisket was bland, and I found myself dousing it in sauce. There was a sauce that was "hot," but as spicy-food lovers, we didn't think it hit the right amount of heat. I didn't like my cornbread at all, and gave it to my hubby, who did say that he enjoyed it. I felt a little disappointed because I had basically eaten a plate of meat (that I thought was just ok) and no side.
The server encouraged us to try the buttermilk pie, and since I had some extra room in my belly, I agreed. We split a slice, and it was pretty good. They say it is award-winning!
I'm hoping we came in on an off night, but I wouldn't jump at a chance to return, despite the friendly service and great location.
