Back Country Bar-B-Q


6/24/10 Dallas, TX. So North Texas gets another shot to prove their mediocrity and Back Country Bar-B-Q came through with blazing blanditude. It did have some solid aspects which makes it one of the better places to go, but since the brisket was boring, and the sausage even more boring, it doesn't get to sit at the adult table quite yet. The brisket, yes bland, was at least very tender and reminds me of that fall-off-the-fork tenderness that Uncle Billy's has. There's nothing worse than brisket that tastes like a cracker AND is tough and jerky to boot (I'm looking at YOU Green Mesquite). The sausage isn't even worth ment... Anyway they give you a big slice of texas toast which is cool, but really the best part was their unique potato salad. It was smooth and the potato chunks were tiny. One step further and you would have potato pudding. Have a look at the pic and maybe you'll see what I'm talking about.


They also had a live band that played Abracadabra by Steve Miller over and over. And I always thought once was enough! Who knew you were supposed to play that song several times in a row! In any case, I give them points for having a band at all, even though it reminded me of a Viagra commercial. Kudos, Back Country Bar-B-Q! You get your real world C+, but with your Dallas curve you're up to a very solid B!
