The real thing.
M-F 10 AM - 4 PM
Saturday 10 AM - 2 PM.

The interior is a time capsule of about 1955. This is clearly a purpose-built BBQ pit/stand, and I'd nominate it for the National Register of Historic Places on the building alone.

I tried the brisket. Just a little dry (my wife would say perfectly lean), but with a great crust and smoke ring and delicious flavor. Very tender. Excellent home-made sauce was provided for those wanting sauce...tangy and tart with cayenne pepper, mustard and vinegar flavors, but not too tomatoey. However, good brisket like this really doesn't need sauce.

A+ and worth the drive (but I'm no expert).    [16 May 2006 11:06:59]
