Not Enough Pork For The Fork. I stopped in on a recent Thursday afternoon around lunchtime to find only one other table in the place occupied. I was quickly seated and ordered the Porker McGee and Sriracha & Bacon Deviled Eggs, after a hearty endorsement from the bartender.The pit-smoked pulled pork was neither pit smoked nor pulled, just a roughly-chopped, pre-packaged pork product warmed on a flattop grill. The Carolina-style sauce was certainly not North or South Carolina-style instead, the pork was simply soaked in Cattlemans BBQ Sauce, that sickening, super sweet, tomato-based restaurant topping banned in most Third World nations – and certainly never seen in any decent BBQ joint. Even worse, the semi-stale bun was buttered and toasted.Alas, to further ruin the $11.00 sandwich, the meat was topped with a sopping wet pile of bagged cabbage/carrot coleslaw and two slices of cucumber. Yes, I said cucumber.Folks, a true Southerner might put a slice or two of bread-n-butter pickles on an Eastern North Carolina-style pork sandwich, but NEVER a sliver of plain cucumber. They shutter and burn restaurants in the South for showing less respect to ‘cue.The deviled eggs were nicely prepared, with a notable burn-the-lips heat from the Sriracha Sauce. But at $6.00 for two medium-sized eggs, the portion left me hanging and wanting more. (Another tip – order a side of salad dressing, ’cause the eggs are delivered on a plate that features enough foliage to act as an appetizer of its own).The tater tots were rocket hot and perfectly fried, but not enough to save the rest of the meal.
