Ohio generally doesn't favor barbecue restaurants it's more of a southern thing. However I needed to try the proper Pig Smokehouse. My wife and I went there for lunch today and she ordered the pulled pork sandwich with that you get one side she chose coleslaw I ordered the two meat platter with one side I also chose coleslaw. For my to meet I chose turkey and brisket. The turkey they pulled out and sliced up right in front of me and you have an option of Dipping the turkey in butter. I'm in Lipitor so I figured what the heck why not.
The brisket had a nice bark and fell apart and was easily eating with a fork the turkey I did have to cut but it was still exceptionally tender. My wife advised that her pulled pork sandwich was delicious. All that was the good. Now here's the not so good.
Price. For two people to have lunch it was $26. Well I know barbecue can be a little pricey I felt this was a little too high to repeat on a normal basis.
Barbecue joints typically have at the table more than one barbecue sauce. A sweet spicy or hot and a regular ketchup you barbecue sauce. You only had a choice of one barbecue sauce I don't know if it was housemaid or Heinz.
Lastly, cleanliness. The floor was so greasy you could almost see the word lawsuit written in it. All you need is some people to come in with wet shoes and down the floor they'll go. It was greasy in the bathroom, greasy by the drink dispenser, greasy everywhere. They need some severe hardcore mopping and grease cutting in order to keep this place safe for its patrons.
Also on a personal note I hate that when you check out with a debit card they hand you the iPad which asks you if you want to tip the cashier. $26 for counter service is pretty hefty and I'm not quite sure I need to tip.
