Best BBQ in Massachusetts
Sunday, May 18, 2008
We came in hungry for bbq and were not disappointed. We started with the smoked south carolina wings which were tender and fell off the bone. the sweet honey mustard bbq sauce was a perfect compliment to the smoky flavor of the meat. not knowing which ribs to get, our server suggested the "cowboys and indians" plate, a combo of 2 barbequed meats. I got both the southern spareribs and the babybacks. both were great, smoked perfectly. much better than i've had at other area bbq places. the spareribs were tender and juicy while the babybacks fell of the bone but didn't fall apart from over-cooking. don't forget to ask for the cornbread and honey butter (worth the trip by itself). the large selection of beer (lots of local micros) was a pretty nice touch, too. the barstaff (we ate at the bar) was helpful in picking from a few i'd never heard of. the huge tv's showing the sox and celtics didn't hurt our night out either.
Pros: Food, portions, price
Cons: Parking can be a little tough
