Every Monday night the Bar.B.Q and Crabshack known as Big Easy has a Big Pig Gig night where you can get All You Can Eat Bar-B-Q for £14.95. With this you get Home Smoked Ribs & Chicken with beans, coleslaw and a free cold drink. I was put on to this pig out by my new friends Esther and Cass. We got there for a 6.30 start and were taken downstairs where at first we were the only diners. To be honest I felt a little self-conscious pigging out in such circumstances! LOL. However, not too long after that it got totally packed out and not long after that our first set of ribs came and I totally forgot about those around us as I set to work on my rack.
The ribs were fantastic. Not as fall off your bone as other places such as at Blubecker’s (which was by far and away one of the best rack of ribs I’ve ever eaten) but it was very tasty and the sauce was equally delicious though it had a bit of a spicy bite. The chicken, on the other hand, was strange. The legs we got were gigantic and Sandra was certain they were turkey. It was tender but had no real flavour. I was content not to pick the meat off completely – had to save as much room for the ribs after all. It turns out that I couldn’t fit much more in after my first rack and my giant chicken leg … I could only finish a half rack more and that was pushing it. And I’m feeling a bit ill now from overeating if I’m being honest … 🙂
