Sometimes it seems that no matter how hard I try to not do something events conspire to head me in that direction anyway. Today I was going to enjoy this HOT summer day with a ride up the Hood Canal. Maybe catch a bite to eat at some random restaurant alongside what ever road my travels put me on. Within minutes I hit new chip seal and too much traffic. So, just a mere 5 or 6 miles north of Shelton I turned around and was thinking about what should do. Without too much conscious effort on my part I found myself pulling into the parking in front of Mo's. Hmmmmmm... how did I end up here? Lord knows, I couldn't have picked a better spot to just chance by. HA HA, who am I kidding? Smoking Mo's Kitchen doesn't need divine intervention to get me in the door.
Taste: Last time I was down there Tom was talking up the new sandwich, aptly named the Big Country. I was intrigued and the thoughts of this monstrosity had my interest and appetite whetted, so without too much apprehension that is what I decided to take home. Good grief folks! 1/2 pound each of pulled pork and brisket, piled very high on a huge bun with slaw and sauce. Just the right amount of sauce too, as it complemented the smokey pork and beef. The beef was incredibly tender and extremely smokey. The pork was well done and tasted just like the inside of a well seasoned pit. The slaw added a very nice crunch to the sandwich. The bun, well the bun was made for hamburgers. Not my top favorite for serving BBQ on, but it didn't detract from anything on this feast. 9 very deserved stars.
Value: A full pound of BBQ piled onto this giant sandwich with a double order of slaw (on the sandwich and on the side) made this $15 w/tip a very good bargain indeed. 9 stars.
Staff: Today I had a treat. I got to say hi, then bye, then hi again.......and then another goodbye to Mo. She was running in and out of the joint getting ready to head home. Tom was his usual friendly self and I heard about the new sandwich, which will put the Big Country to shame. 9 stars.
Ambiance: As usual, I can't find any faults or wrongs here. One of these days I'm gonna have to catch you guys when the smokers are running. 9 stars.
Friends: I needed a friend today as this lunch/dinner was enormous. I wondering who I might drag down to try another one. Anyway, its just one more thing to recommend to my buds. 9 stars.
Well....lets see...take the root angle of the circumference of the outer diameter of the right triangle. Divide by pi and factor in the air velocity of a coconut laden swallow.....and the results are......drum roll please....9 STARS. Well, another fine BBQ experience thanks to the great folks at Smoking Mo's Kitchen. Come on people, you ain't had BBQ until you try Mo's.
Later...
