We met some friends and family for dinner last week at the Hammered Hog. This is a pretty standard BBQ joint with the additional upside being the full bar and selection of Arizona beers.
The service was very good, we had both a waitress and bartender look in on us frequently. My wife and I split the $30 family platter, which came with pulled pork, brisket, baby back ribs and hot links. All the the barbecue was very good. Whoever runs the smoker knows what they are doing, everything was tender and smokey. My wife really loved the hot links but they could have been spicier for my taste. The real letdown was the side dishes. The platter came with a choice of 4 and we ordered mashed potatoes, collard greens, mac & cheese and hush puppies. The hush puppies we bland and greasy and the bachamel in the mac & cheese was broken. The mashed potatoes were marginal but the greens were pretty good. The table also ordered onion rings and jalapeno poppers. The rings were huge but flavorless and oily however the poppers were really good. Be warned though, they were very spicy.
I'd definitely return for the barbecue but I think I'll pass on the sides next time, with an exception to the collard greens.
