Central BBQ Restaurant Review: You’ll stand in line for your ribs during peak times at this small counter-service-only ’cue shop. Central’s respectable versions of tangy ribs and pulled pork shoulder have put the place on the map. Central also serves up fiery hot wings (marinated, smoked and then fried), homemade potato chips, a smoked portobello mushroom sandwich and four choices of sauce. Place your order and choose a table --- either on the breezy patio or inside the tiny dining room. There’s no wine list to speak of, but beer goes well with barbecue, so try a glass of locally brewed Ghost River to accompany your meal. Desserts include cheesecake, a hot fudge brownie, or the cool and creamy peanut butter pie. |
