Word... that's best way I can say it... I've had better.
I really had crazy high hopes for Stacy's. Pulling up to the former corner store, I could smell the smoke in the air and felt my hopes rise even further away from me. I wasn't sure what I was expecting, but I knew I wanted it to be good.
Walkin' in, I saw the "They love on YELP" sticker and was so glad. Stacy's is good and unfortunatly... he knows it. We looked over the sign and wasn't sure what to get. My mom ordered the small beef sandwich with onion rings. I started to order, but then stopped my self and was given a smart ass remark from the cashier. My bad... dang. Ummm let me get the large pork sandwich with sweet fries and small cole slaw and grape kool-aid. Our order came to nearly $20 For a simple lunch!!
We waited and sat and heard some slimely businessmen talking about titties, cigars and cars... *shudder* overhearing their conversation made me regret being straight. gag. Our food was brought to our table and I was... underwhelmed.
The fries looked limp and lifeless, like they were rememnts from the past lunch hour. not at all cruncy or flavorfull... besides the sugary cinammon sprinkled atop them. The sandwich was okay... but just okay. It reminded me of manwhich with extra liquid smoke. the cole slaw was uninspired (Who knew cole slaw needed inspiration?) It needed heavy doses of pepper and a kick of salt to be decent. The Kool-Aid was too sweet to drink and I wound up chugging a third of it before adding some water to it and then was able to ward off diabetic coma for that day.
My mom liked her sandwich but didn't like that it was SOO small! She was really disappointed but liked the flavor and wanted more. She also liked her onion rings, I had a couple and they were good. I want to give it another go. Because so many people liked it, it has to be good... right?! It could have been a bad day or something, I'm really hoping it was. Because based off of my experience... best BBQ in the city?? Hardly!
