I think I liked it better than Pitt Cue, although I haven't been to their sit-down place yet, only the van last year. Atmosphere was authentic and the ribs were good. Did they have those ridiculous challenges when you went?Ginglesnuffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00254189538193183395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588051831069283523.post-64654192179546402612011-06-23T14:19:37.012+00:002011-06-23T14:19:37.012+00:00Went there last night for the Pulled Pork sandwich...Went there last night for the Pulled Pork sandwich - overall, very good. They've just changed the bread, and I must say it was delicious. I think the BBQ/smoky flavour could have been stronger but all in all we were pleased. It's also very good value for money - the portion sizes are generous.<br /><br />Also the service was refreshingly down to earth, friendly and non-obtrusive. I think this place might just go from strength to strength.....Meowmixnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588051831069283523.post-22182667656362079952011-06-22T17:48:59.366+00:002011-06-22T17:48:59.366+00:00mer i think u r wrong. as an american and a massiv...mer i think u r wrong. as an american and a massive bbq enthusiast it is a common misconception that ribs should fall off the bone and have a melting texture. to achieve this you have to boil the meat which results in a lack of flavour. real ribs should have some texture and not melt. the bone should be clean when finished but the meat will never "fall" off it. think you may be a little misguided.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588051831069283523.post-38031025031180186192011-06-22T11:20:54.124+00:002011-06-22T11:20:54.124+00:00Ribs should fall off the bone...this is serious ju...Ribs should fall off the bone...this is serious judging criteria in US BBQ competitions.

All in all sounds hopeful, a few things they probably need to work on but given they are new I think it's a positive review and as you were asked to review you can expect them to be reading what you say. Burger with pure chuck sounds good to me even if it's not aged and those wings sound mint! I think I'll have a waddle over to check them out :^PPDHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01285211840621002331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588051831069283523.post-35276524315592999962011-06-15T10:43:27.477+00:002011-06-15T10:43:27.477+00:00Gives me some hope for tonight, we're after ri...Gives me some hope for tonight, we're after ribs and since my last trip to Bodean's was hugely disappointing I'm slightly optimistic.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10603263648624634135noreply@blogger.com
