The sides really add a lot to the overall table opportunity. And the family style and endless supply also adds to table opportunity. The more table opportunity, the more excitement in the meal, because after every bite of something you are eager to get into the next thing. Table opportunity is something I think separates Saltlick from other top notch bbq spots.<BR/><BR/>I will say Saltlick's sauce is not my favorite, and I would rank them under the top 5 or 10 for sauce, even though I'd easily rank them overall in the top 5 or 10 in the State (from where I've been thus far). The reason for my lower sauce rating here is because of my general preference for sauces that are more spicy than sweet. However, Saltlick's sauce is a refreshing change of pace from my normal favorites that are more spicy than sweet, like at Rudy's.<BR/><BR/>If I can figure it out, I will provide you with a couple close ups of the bbq pit at the Saltlick to add to your most excellent selections already on the post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
