BBQ
Sometimes names are strange. Here on Valley Street is Salvage BBQ and Smokehouse. It's a new place. I think it opened the end of last summer. My guess is that the name is derived from a small salvage operation that once occupied the premises. It certainly has the look, from the outside, of a small warehouse facility. It has an attractively painted facade facing Congress Street, with four large windows that really reveal a sense of what's going on within. Not a big bbq guy. It's a bit messy for my taste, and I've heard that a diet of it is not all that good for me. So I've been told by a close and personal friend.
But I've glanced at the menu.
I'd take a chance.
From the looks of that receiving dock, I'd say they could handle some serious pork. :-)
ReplyDeletei love the look of it! i would guess it was a salvage shop too!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure that name conjures up pleasant bbq thoughts.
ReplyDeleteI'd take a chance too. Once in a while a little bbq can't hurt.
ReplyDeletei love bbq if it is not too saucy (i like my ribs dry-rub). i think salvage means they serve up roadkill. :)
ReplyDeleteSome of the best eateries are small places such as this one.
ReplyDeleteIt would be nice if they painted the brick side like the pretty side. It would look more inviting. BBQ stuff too messy for me too.
ReplyDeleteby the by---I have been 5'2" all my mostly grown up life and now it is 5'3/4" so I said no way--alas so true.

Looks tempting to me!
ReplyDeleteIt seems appropriate that you visit the joint to see if it should be rated as a classy bbq joint or just a so-so bbq joint. And if the food was good, you would have salvaged something out of your trip.
ReplyDeleteI'd go for it too.
ReplyDeleteI don't think the name alone would entice some people to try the restaurant. Not very appealing, but BBQ is hard to resist, despite the name.
