ssweeney’s Review of Sammies Bar-B-Q
  • Loin Back Rib: Baby backs. Good color; nice crust. Good flavor & pulls off the bone, but a bit chewy.
  • Quotable: ‘Y’all shouldn’t be afraid of white trash food.’ — Jody Justus regarding the smoked bologna
  • Sauce: S

    • Loin Back Rib: Baby backs. Good color; nice crust. Good flavor & pulls off the bone, but a bit chewy.
    • Quotable: ‘Y’all shouldn’t be afraid of white trash food.’ — Jody Justus regarding the smoked bologna
    • Sauce: Sweet & smokey. Brown sugar & honey; liquid smoke; worchestershire; & some spice on the finish.
    • Bologna: It’s a winner!!!
    • Quotable: ‘There’s something about table service and BBQ joints — its just not right.’ — K-Dog
    • Sausage: There’s some bone/cartilege in this… loosely packed; very soft, buttery texture
    • Atmosphere: Some general disappointment that Sammie’s has been re-built from the ‘old place’. Bar + BBQ Restaurant (separate areas). This would be a good place to hang out drinkin’ schooners on the patio by the creek. Individual bowls of sauce. Really nice cluster of brick pits with a central ‘inner-chamber’.
    • Brisket: Good flavor; very lean; good smoke ring. Seems a bit tough at first, but finishes OK.
