Billy Sunday ... the first review

I was going to write a review of Billy Sunday's - the new Lincoln Road BBQ joint - but, alas, they will not be starting full service until tonight. Something I wish I had found out after trudging through the snow when I tried to order for pickup but did not because nobody answered the phone. It's OK. I'm over it now. I'll probably go back tonight.

However, Lena from God, That's Good went on Saturday and got the free samples treatment. Which I would have loved, but I had to bring back food for four people and we've been told that we are not allowed to leave a baby sleeping alone in the apartment even if we are 100% positive that he won't wake up.

Lena writes:

I'm from California, which is not exactly a BBQ haven of excellence. But as far as I could tell, this meat was good. It was nice and tender, fell right off the bone, and had a lot of flavor. It came with three sauces that I forgot to take a picture of - a mustard/vinegar type sauce, a more traditional BBQ sauce and my personal favorite (although it freaked Ana out), a berry infused sauce that was a little bit sweet and tangy. ... I could have had about a billion more of those biscuits. They were buttery and flaky. Other highlights were the breaded mac and cheese, the sweet potato (or maybe butternut squash? yams? I don't know) mash, and collard greens. I also liked the red cabbage coleslaw.

With a bit of luck, I'll let you know what I think tomorrow.

Me & the old lady tried to try out BS's on Saturday night, but it was stupid crowded. Had to settle for Enduro, which isn't a bad option to have. Glad to see it doing well so far, and look forward to actually dining there at some point.
