ssweeney’s Review of Hickory Bar-B-Que

MAIN FARE:

Rib pulls off the bone and proceeds to fall apart. It is very moist — has spent some time in a steam pan this afternoon.  The fatty brisket is moist and pulls into nice chunks.  It has a mild smoke flavor.  Lean brisket has the bark left intact; Good flavor, if a bit dry and chewy.  No rub.  Sausage is a commercial variety. Hot link reminds me of a "Johnsonville" brand product.  It is better than the regular sausage with flakes of red pepper… however it is not too spicy.

ATMOSPHERE:

Nice wood pile; Sweet hickory smoke hits your nose from the parking lot.
Cafeteria-style serving line.
A woman’s decorating touch inside.

OTHER FARE:

Pintos – are creamy, but bland.
Cole Slaw – is crisp.
Potato Salad – is mushed, yellow, and very good – with crunchy bits of celery for added texture.

Cherry Crunch – is very good.
Peach Cobbler – good.
Banana Pudding – Excellent!
