Social Que — Restaurant in Michigan City

Well now. Saw some stellar BBQ reviews and naturally took that as my own personal invite. Acknowledged soon as we walked in so that was nice. Apparently, they only do bottled drinks which doesn't bother me a whit. Joint was empty. O this building! Gorgeous! Retro industrial with exposed brick, old garage door as front window, tin molded ceiling. LOVE! Moist toilettes trotted out straight off = promising sign. We ordered banana pudding. Fresh made, the real thing and excellent. O course I got sliced brisket, fries n greens. SO got burger n fries and we got ribs for later. Fries very yummy. Crispy outside, soft n steamy on the inside. Greens were also the real thing. Very nice. That burger! I got one bite and SO disappeared it within 90 seconds. It was great. Crunchy edges, nice juicy fat content. Yaaass. Ribs, eh. Weren't knockin our sox off, not very meaty, this batch. Sauce was interesting. Unique. We quite enjoyed it. It wasn't oversweet or too vinegary. It had a nice back heat and not overpowering. Indeed, it was a nice complement but---- not necessary. Exactly as a sauce should be. Main point o course, is the brisket. Ahh brisket. These were big phat slabs o meat! Just lookin at em is visually satisfying. Nice bark depth, outside hada generous seasoning crust. Taste- yes. They were soft, meat falling apart just right, def not dry or in need o sauce, which is what bad bbq joints rely on so customers can actually swallow dry brisket. This brisket is Good. Actually ordered a pound to go. Do NOT nuke to reheat. Foil + hot plate on low n slow and it's almost as good as fresh. ;) I can vow this grub will indeed inspire in you the urge to strike your maternal parental figure. (slap ye mama for u yanks...

Stopped by this spot after taking my lil guy to the doctor. BEST DECISION EVER!!! haven’t had BBQ that good in a while. I immediately knew it was official when I got out the car and the smell smacked me in the face 🤤. I almost drove past it because the sign is kindda small so I had to go around the block which was better cuz I was able to park right on the side of the building. Walked in, super cozy and quiet spot and the lady working the counter seated us and offered us drinks. She took our order and our food was prepared FRESH !!! (no re-heated pre-cooked BS here) I ordered the double smash burger which came with wedges and my wife had the chopped brisket sandwich with a side of mac. First off that burger damn near brought a tear to my eye lol. Probably one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. It had the charred crispy edges yet it was still juicy. It was so good I almost ordered another one. The brisket was tender smokey and super flavorful. A great portion size with an amazing bbq sauce. My wife also got Mac and cheese. It was creamy, cheesy, and very VERY well seasoned. All in all we will definitely be visiting this place again. Please go check them out I guarantee you won’t regret it !!!!! Pictures to follow on...

Super cute place ! Loved the meat! The brisket was out of this world! The ribs were amazing! The maC n cheese was lacking flavor. We enjoyed our experience. The only complaint I would hVe would be this was our first time here we explained that to the woman. Not knowing how spicy the sauce was she should of explained it to us. They put the magic sauce all over everything including my 8 year old daughters plate. Itvwas the hottest sauce in the building. Which we had no clue until we dug in. Everything was delicious but the sauce was too hot to enjoy. Kind of killed it for us. If we DO go back I would get sauce on the side. There should be a sign explaining the sauce levels of hotness. Biggest thing we loved here was we can purchase a meal for anyone who was hungry and didnt have money. We definitely contributed to...
