ssweeney's Review of Mkt BBQ and Fresh Meats

ssweeney's picture
Weighted Overall
6.4
  • Sausage: Good, beefy. Made on-premise. Loose ground & packed. Not greasy, but still flavorful.
  • Atmosphere: Meat market in front of building is no longer functioning. New owner has added the side items (Smolik's was just the meats). Karnes City was hit pretty hard by Claudette, and the storm repair workers ate all the brisket before we arrived. Butcher paper and styrofoam... with 'RollNap' napking dispenser; nice! No tour due to extensive storm damage on the side and rear of the joint.
  • Spare Rib: We called in advance and asked them to hold some ribs for us... Good rib! Nice texture and flavor; a little salty... its the rub, but not overpowering.
  • Potato Salad: Fairly standard; nice, but bland.
  • Sauce: Good, sweet... but no spice. Good on rib, but not on sausage.
