Southern Style Gem: Root & Bone – No Duds, All Delicious Eats 🍖✨ Root & Bone’s Southern-style menu is a total win—every dish we ordered blindly hit the mark, no misses at all! ✨ Why It Shines Authentic Southern Flavors: Dishes stay true to classic Southern cuisine, with rich, layered tastes that feel genuine and satisfying. Versatile Options: From savory ribs and appetizers to creamy desserts, there’s something for every palate. Brunch Perk: Weekend-only brunch (Saturdays & Sundays) adds extra appeal—worth saving a weekend spot for! 🍴 Must-Try Dishes (No Blind Order Regrets) Mains Barbecue Bruleed Spare Ribs (Half/Full Rack): HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! The meat is tender with perfect fat-marbling, coated in bold BBQ sauce. Pairing with chili adds extra depth, but it’s pretty spicy—proceed with caution if you can’t handle heat! Appetizers Fried Green Tomato ‘BLT’: A pleasant surprise (no "weird" factor at all!). Crispy fried green tomatoes topped with bacon, cheese, and house-made ketchup—textures and flavors are super rich. 4/5 stars, a definite must-try! Smoky Bacon Board: Loaded with pork rinds, smoked bacon, cheese, and assorted pickles. Pork rinds are greasy on their own, but pairing with cheese balances it out. Smoked bacon is drizzled with honey (sweet-savory combo) and the sweet pickles cut through the richness perfectly. Dessert Key Lime Creme Brûlée: A must for crème brûlée lovers (I order it everywhere it’s offered!). The key lime adds a fresh, zesty twist, but I wasn’t a fan of the cookie crust—stuck to just the creamy custard top, which was delicious. 📌 Practical Info 🏠 Name: Root & Bone Brunch Note: Brunch is only available on weekends (Saturday & Sunday)—add it to your weekend dining list! Spice Warning: The chili pairing for ribs is quite spicy; ask for it on the side if you prefer milder flavors. #SouthernCuisine #FoodieFave #NoBadOrders #BrunchAlert #SavorySweets
