A carnivore’s dream.

Every once in a while we throw the cooler in the car and head out on a pilgrimage.

.

.

We drive two hours south to a little town in New Hampshire that houses one of our favorite places.

.

.

Part tavern, part butcher shop… it’s always worth the drive.

.

.

Husband likes the bar, where antiques hang over your head.

.

.

And the food?

Oh my…

.

.

My Banging Shrimp were crispy, spicy, sweet and delicious.

.

.

Husband’s French Onion soup was rich, hearty and had steak in it as well.

.

.

I started with a beer but switched to an alcoholic Dreamsicle.

Gin, orange liqueur, lemon creamsicle simple and orange juice with a sugared rim.

.

.

The Real Burger King Burger for me. Ground filet mignon and ribeye with caramelized onions, Swiss cheese, smoked bacon and truffle aioli.

Seriously, one of the best burgers ever.

.

.

Filet mignon with mashed potatoes and baked beans for the spouse. The gravy was to die for and made from roasting their prime rib.

Along with the excellent tavern, there’s a massive butcher shop filled with steaks, chops, chicken, sausage and deli salads.

There’s also a wonderful selection of local craft beer.

.

.

Batson River’s cans are quintessentially Maine.

.

.

There were also a few weirdos.

.

.

I was very tempted to buy some …

.

.

But our beer fridge is bursting at the seams as it is.

.

.

We did come home with a few things for the grill though.

.

.

Their house marinated steak tips are da bomb.

👍

  7. Your meal looks amazing and I’d have to bring a cooler with me for the leftovers—-I’d not want to waste one bite.

    The first beer cans were a work of art; they were truly beautiful. But the others? Ugh, scary, very scary!!
