Pappas Bar-B-Q Restaurant Review

: Although it's the most nondescript setting of all the Pappas enterprises, this 1967 original remains one of the favorites because of the tender meat. Loyal fans and downtown office workers, especially, love to chow down on what are arguably the city's best slow-cooked brisket, sausage and pork ribs. These standards are joined on the chopping block with house favorites like ham, turkey and chicken. As at all the Pappas restaurants, huge portions are a trademark. Take the burgers. These half-pound handfuls are fried on a griddle and sandwiched between two butter-toasted bun halves, complete with all the fixings. For our money, these are some of the best burgers in town, not to mention a great value. A heart-healthy option can be found in a decent chicken burger.
