| - Good... maybe great...giving it 4 stars cause I'm from Cleveland. Huge BBQ FANATIC. I do a lot on my own. Multiple smokers and grills, game meat, prime cuts, you name it, I love food. Went with some buddies before a tribe game. We're foodies, one is a chef, I wish I was... here's the deal...
It's different BBQ. It's trying to introduce BBQ, to Cleveland differently. Some people don't understand the little shop on the side of the road selling the smoked meats like a deli, till they're gone. The one sauce, and the one rub. And the here is what you get.
It's good. I don't think this sauce was great with the pork ribs... but I got the pork ribs, kielbasa, and pork cabbage... that worked beautifully. Unfortunately, one guy I was with. Didn't see that on the menu. Got it all separately and the waiter said nothing. Was very jealous.
I thought what I got was great. Worked well as a dish. Might I add, so was the the rye whiskey. I think BBQ is a hard sell to Cleveland, especially a different BBQ. I like it. Cleveland pride, fantastic. If you don't like it the first time, Go back. If you're from out of town, this isn't Texas, Memphis, KC, BBQ, this is ctowns'.
I don't think it belongs on E4th. I think side of 480 stopping traffic is a more fitting spot. Go. Try it. Take your time, and understand that this is Cleveland... could go for some more kielbasa about now.
