I don't really know what to call it, since it's not soup, but rather the place they put the chili and BBq meats.\n\nI think the lamb chili is just flat out superb. Tender, moist chunks of lamb and a variety of vegetables make it one of the best I've ever had. I also am a big fan of the bbq shredded beef. The flavors are rounded and even, not too sharp, hot or sweet.\n\nThe next thing I really like is the guys who work in the beer department. They are always very willing to match up a brew with the choices you've made for dinner, and even to help push your own horizons on beers. Some of my new samplings are Ol' Chub (don't be scared of the fact it comes in a can), Raisin d'etre (made with golden raisins) and Stone Vertical ale."^^ .
