| - I stopped by here since I had a barbecue withdrawal after being on a project in Dallas for three months.
This certainly hit the spot.
This menu is printed on a chalkboard above the cash register. Since this would be my one trip into Phoenix in a while, I asked my perpetual question to the staff, "If this were your only meal here, what would you order."
I was recommended the smoked ham sandwich, which is served open faced topped with cheeses and the honey-mustard sauce. I was pleasantly suprised that the honey-mustard had a slight kick to it. Their barbecue sauce was served on the side. Folks can order a side with the meal and I chose the yam planks, which are in essence, yam chips.
I was pleasantly surprised by the quantity of ham that was on the sandwich. It's not your sliced deli-style ham, but actually a ham that was sliced from what looks like a spiral ham, then grilled, and piled high on a garlic toast. Mmm.
The yam planks were well seasoned.
My favorite was the "Blue Collar Beer Cooler." They had cans (yes, cans) of inexpensive beer in the fridge, including Pabst Blue Ribbon, Old Style, Schlitz and Genessee. I haven't seen these brands of beer in ages. Classic!
Four stars from me, and I'll be coming back the next time I'm in Phoenix.
