As I am constantly on the look out for some awesome Bbq (who isn't) I GPSed Bbq on my handy dandy HTC Evo, my ever faithful companion. Pit Master Bbq came up, and having never been there before, I was intrigued.
First impression from outside as I approached from the parking lot. Is this a restaurant or a biker bar? The picture painted on the windows is that of a scantily clad female body, augmented EVERYTHING if you catch my meaning, but with the head of a smiling pig. Hmm. A bit disturbing. More disturbing was the fact of the teenish server girls still brandishing their orthodontia, while wearing the business uniform tee-shirt of the half naked, super augmented piggy chick on their chest. No, my daughter would never work there.
Once inside I was greeted by a mediocre "sit anywhere you want." The tables and general atmosphere were clean and tidy ( I didn’t check the bathrooms) and current country music played kinda loud. My order was taken promptly, sweet tea with lemon brought quickly and it was really very good. A must have for any self respecting Bbq restaurant. I ordered the "Hill-Billy combo. Pulled pork or beef brisket on potato roll topped with Cole slaw served with French fries. I love an Alabama slaw dog so what the heck? Order was out in average time, fries were hot, very important. I got the pork, which was nearly melt in your mouth tender. The texture almost making up for the lack of flavor of the pork itself..almost. The potato bun was very soft and fresh, but the Cole slaw was not really a distinguishable flavor or texture on the sandwich.
The very best part of this endeavor to Pit Master relies heavily on the Bbq sauce. Or rather sauces. There are five. I tried them all, and LOVED every one. Ranging from Original, Sweet, Bold Sweet, Spicy, and most importantly and harder to come by, Mustard sauce. Individually they were great, with flavors shaming other local competitors like Sonny's, Dustin’s, and even my beloved Brian’s Bbq. Mixed together over my fires they were equally as wonderful, bringing me to break a little sweat right underneath my eyes. Makes me wish I'd have bought some to bring home with me. I do want to note that the containers of Bbq sauce were completely spotless when brought to my table. Not even a drip on the sides or any proof they'd been used before, and they were completely full, a very nice touch.
Prices were decent, around 7$ for my combo not including the tea.
*Overall Experience*
Clean and tidy atmosphere.
Pretty good food.
Really good tea.
Excellent sauce.
