Brody and I stopped by to give it a quick once over. Our female server was almost too good. I don't know if she would have done the whole sauce show if it had just been me but Brody seemed to enjoy it. She made pig faces and smiley faces and spelled Brody's name all while giving an enthusiastic explanation of each of the 6 sauces offered. Three different plates were used for sauce artwork and then left with us for the duration. Actually, if she had done the whole show and it had been just me it would have been pretty awkward.
On Scott's recommendation I went wit the pulled pork sandwich. Our server quickly informed me that they only have a cut pork sandwich because you lose too much of the bark flavoring from the grill if they pull the meat. Ok.
The sandwich was tasty. A tiny amount of the pork might have stayed on the grill too long and needed to be removed from my mouth by hand but that didn't offset the overall experience. The baked beans have some kind of wonderful smoke flavor that I haven't tasted before and I can only hope its something real and not a trick added with flavorings. I also got a side of green beans and cole slaw. The green beans weren't worth mentioning as the serving size amounted to what woulod fit in the palm of my hand. The slaw was solid. Nothing crazy or new age, just good house made slaw with no pretention of being light or healthy.
I should mention that although I would recommend this place the portions of all food ordered was definitely on the small side. I did not leave with that Wood Ranch fullness one might expect.
Speaking of Wood Ranch, Famous Dave's does not compete on the same level but I would certainly opt for this place before going to Bandits.
