There’s a restaurant under the black awning in this corner building in downtown Augusta.
.
.
It’s a place my husband continually thinks he likes, but really doesn’t.
.
.
I love that their beer is tapped in an old copper still.
.
.
And while the pomegranate margarita was killer, I admit their version of hushpuppies was not.
.
.
We’ve been here a few times and because I enjoy barbecue, I liked my meal.
.
.
Half a dry rubbed chicken, sweet potato fries, slaw and jalapeño cornbread.
.
.
My husband on the other hand complained his (very tender and flavorful) ribs didn’t have enough meat, his beans weren’t New England style, his slaw was too dry and his cornbread too spicy.
He doesn’t really like barbecue, but always thinks he does… no matter how many times I tell him he won’t be pleased.
Short memory, or stubbornness? Either way it will probably be another year before he suggests going out for barbecue again.

River's world..... 
My husband claims he loves steak but he hasn’t liked a steak dish for quite sometime!

Then why do they keep insisting they do?
It’s maddening.

I think it’s stubbornness 🤣. He won’t admit he’s wrong about anything or admit your right 99% of the time either, lol.

You’d think he would have learned to listen to me… after 41 years.

I wish someone would move up here from the south and teach people how to make hushpuppies. It’s so hard to find good ones.

It is. And they’re such a simple thing!
These were some of the worst I’ve ever had.

The worst I ever had were at a place here in Connecticut where (though not describe on the menu) they were Korean Fusion Hush Puppies.

That’s just… wrong.
In so many ways.

This is hilarious!! Also, I’v not had a good hushpuppie in a while; they’re a delight when done properly.

To be fair, most ribs don’t have a lot of meat. That’s just the nature of ribs! (My dad’s the opposite. He thinks he doesn’t like ribs, but whenever we serve them, he scarfs them down.)

Ribs don’t have a lot of meat.
Never do.
Anywhere.
And yet, he keeps ordering them…

His meat looks perfect ( yep realized how it sounded but figured you could use a good laugh) I would take it home and throw some real barbeque sauce on it.
