So, it's my first day in Florida, and George tells me that we have to try this new BBQ restaurant in Sarasota.

Great; it is exactly what I am in the mood for.

Now, the place has what I like in BBQ: no thrills, picnic tables inside and out, customers walk right up to the counter, and you tell them what you would like before they put it together for you right there on a tray. Perfect.

George and I both order a combo plate with ribs, brisket, and some pulled pork, along with three sides. Now, the pulled pork was nothing special, but it was good enough.  The flavor was good, but overall, I was not too impressed. On the other hand, the St. Louis-style ribs were delectable! I would have given them 8 out of 10. Slow cooked, but not so much that they just fall off the bone; rather, the tender meat came off with a clean bite.  The brisket was cooked to perfection.  It had a nice bark on it, and it was extremely juicy.  You could tell that it was carved to order!

From my experience, sides are often overlooked. For our sides, we had collard greens with bacon, slow cooked baked beans with pork, and baked macaroni and cheese.

Out of the three, I would say I liked the collard greens the best. Collared greens are often too bitter for my taste, so it took me by surprise to have enjoyed them so much. But, these greens had a perfectly-balanced taste about them. They were most likely the best I have had!

Overall, I am a little jealous of George, who will get to have this meal again real soon.

Maybe he will bring some back for me?
