Worth Another Trip To Little Rock?

After two previous attempts were thwarted (closed on Sundays, closes at 8pm on Saturday night), we finally made it inside the Whole Hog Cafe in Little Rock, Arkansas. There was a lot of buildup on this one from Brother Michael's previous visit and huge expectations after having twice been turned away.

It totally delivered.

We got Whole Hawg platters for $12 apeice that included ribs, brisket, pulled pork and two sides. There was well over a pound of meat on the plate and I had to force myself to stop eating so I could save some for dinner. It was all exeptional and it may be the best BBQ I've ever had. I can also say that I celebrate their entire catalog of sauces. Here is a run down of those...

Sauce No. 1: Sweet, mild, molasses.
Sauce No. 2: Traditional tomato, vinegar, slightly tangy.
Sauce No. 3: Same as No. 2, but much spicier!
Sauce No. 4: Traditional Southern vinegar & spice.
Sauce No. 5: Sweet, heavy, molasses.
Sauce No. 6: Rich mustard & vinegar, Old South favorite.

BBQ this good almost makes up for having to see jackass Razorback fans everywhere...almost.
