ssweeney’s Review of Blalock Bar-B-Que
  • Sausage: Good meaty/beefy flavor. Course ground with black pepper in the mix. Maybe a bit oversmoked?
  • Mystery Meat: Very starchy… blood sausage? Yuck, this isn’t something I like.
  • Brisket: Firm; lean, but with go

    • Sausage: Good meaty/beefy flavor. Course ground with black pepper in the mix. Maybe a bit oversmoked?
    • Mystery Meat: Very starchy… blood sausage? Yuck, this isn’t something I like.
    • Brisket: Firm; lean, but with good marble; it is moist, but a little chewy on the finish
    • Spare Rib: The wood ‘acted up’ on these… it left a STRONG off-flavor in the meat. Too bad, because the texture is good and the meat is falling away from the bone.
    • Quotable: ‘This rib has a flavor that smoked meat shouldn’t have.’ — Dbl Boner
    • Atmosphere: Good focus… this is a BBQ place, no question. I like the feel of the place, but its still too new. The pits are out back, so the inside won’t reap the benefit of ‘aging by smoke’.
    • Quotable: ‘I’ve never seen more stuff come OUT of people’s mouths.’ — T-Bone
