12/21/09 House Park BBQ on Lamar and 12th St. This cash only joint gets a solid grade A for brisket, sausage, sides, and ambiance. The brisket was good, though contrary to their sign, you do need "teef to eat their beef". Sausage was good and coarsly packed, though the casings were a bit tough for my taste. Sides consist of beans, cole slaw, and potato salad. All of them good and I like the fact that I didn't have to order them, they just came standard on the mixed plate.
You know you're in for some good BBQ when all the photos and pictures inside the place are all stained brown. Everything was brown in this place, made for a great bbq atmosphere. In fact, we ended up leaving earlier than usual because Steve (official Blog-Bee-Que photographer) said his eyes were watering from the smoke. We agreed that this is clearly not a strike against House Park, and that ambient smoke actually adds to the experience. The only disappointing part was that there was no banana pudding to complete the package (oh, and no sweet tea). No problem, as it is the holidays, there's no shortage of sweets at work and home. Merry Christmas!
