We went to Chop House BBQ a couple of weeks ago and we were so pleasantly surprised! The atmosphere is kind of cool with blues music pumping throughout the joint. Classic black and white photographs of blues musicians are displayed like a gallery paying tribute to the world of blues. We spent some time trying to name the musicians only to learn later on a local photographer created images using the owners, family and friends. Sure had us fooled, as the photographs are beautiful.
We stepped up to the counter (laid out with lovely brown glass tiles) and ordered from the large overhead menu. Plenty of choices. We had a chopped beef sandwich with fries, a combo meal with brisket and pulled pork and something they call a spicy cheese sausage sandwich. Man, they do barbecue right. Smokey flavor, using hickory wood and they have three bbq sauces at the table to choose from. The meats were smokey, moist and tender, while the spicy cheese sausage lived up to its name. As the manager said, it had a nice kick even though the mild cheese inside toned it down a little. It was unique and delicious. The barbecue sauces are all homemade and they offer two mild (Sweet and Woody - a hickory infused sauce) and a Tearjerker (hot.) We all had our favorites, mine being the good barbecue taste of the woody sauce.
There are plenty of sides to choose from but the french fries are out of this world! They are hand cut fresh fries and they taste like it. Probably worth a trip back just for those. The barbecue beans were rich and full of barbecue flavor, just the way I like it. My wife had the potato salad and said it was one of the best she's ever had. Mustard based, whatever that means. We kicked back to enjoy the delicious food while listening to a variety of blues music, most of which we never heard before but kept us tapping our toes.
Chop House BBQ is a fun place with great food. A nice surprise indeed!
