resturant review

I had dinner at Fox Brothers BBQ last night with some friends.  It was good.  Really good.

I got the pulled pork and sliced brisket plate.  Both were tasty.  Both were not too heavily flavored, and when sauced, were excellent.  The sauce, BTW, is a perfect balance of sweet, sour and spicy.

For an appetizer, we got "the Tomminator":  A pile of tater tots covered in Brunswick Stew and melted cheese.  It was delicious.

But the whole reason for this post, is the sides.  I got collard greens and mac and cheese.  Honestly, both of them were probably the best I have ever had at any BBQ joint ever.  Seriously.  My only experience with the Brunswick stew was between tots and cheese, but it was also excellent.  Tom got the cole slaw and said it was also excellent.

I'm considering going back and ordering the "4 sides" vegetarian plate.  They're that good.

4 sides vegetarian?!

Finally, a place where meatlovers and veggie lovers may eat together happily! We should go when I'm in town next!

I would not characterize most of the sides as vegetarian (maybe the mac and cheese and the cole slaw, but that's about it. The veggies are cooked with pork, in the grand southern tradition.
