My Family and I went to Big Bubba's BBQ Restaurant at the Mohegan Sun Casino
in Uncasville Connecticut. We went to Casino to see the Trans-Siberian
Orchestra
. If you
have never seen them you must see them. It is a great way to
start the
Christmas Season.

We went before the show. We were seated and serve promptly. We were seated at 1:50 p.m. and our food arrived within 10 minutes in perfect order.

I had the Pulled Pork sanwich served with fries, coleslaw and potatoe salad. Everything was great. Nice tender meat and good sauce. I tried 2 of the three sauces with my fries (I never use catsup). The Sauces were all right not great.
I liked the Original Sauce more than the Hickory. The Hickory was too smokey. And it wasn't a natural tasting smoke flavor, more like a chemical based smoke
flavor. The coleslaw was very good as was the potatoe salad. I feel that great side dishes are as important as the main dishes to make it a good BBQ. We also had the Best Dang Corn Bread I have had in a long time.

My son had a fried Chicken Sandwich. I was a very tastey chicken. It must have been homemade batter. And I would guess that they pan fry the chicken.

Worth the trip if you are going to the Casino anyway.

Very EXPENSIVE but what I should expect to pay at a
casino.

J.T. PAPPY'S HICKORY HEAVEN


Please note the word "HEAVEN". Anyone can put that on their label but this one deserves it!

If you like the perfect smokiness in your BBQ Sauce look no This hickory smoke is infused in an all-natural steam extraction process, not that liquid smoke junk that most sauce makers use.. J.T. has done it again and with the help of mother nature of course.

"While fixin' his favorite sauce, Pappy got caught in the rain and a bolt of lightnin' struck down his favorite hickory tree, scattering smokin' hickory chips in his sauce. Wee-doggie!"

This is one of the nicest smoothest smoke flavored BBQ sauces that have passed my lips and trust me there has been allot of sauce passing my lips. When my family goes on vacation we drive so that I can pull of anytime I see the words BBQ on the interstate. I have the most wonderful family because the trip up and down the east cost can take along time when I have to pull over so often.

The Pink Pig by Traeger


Look no further, before you is the perfect grill. Actually any grill made by Traeger is the perfect grill. I just so happen to use (on a very regular basis) this grill. This is the ultimate in set it and well, lets not forget it. This grill to cooks to perfection every and I mean EVERY time.
This little critter uses wood pellets as its fuel source. It has s built in thermostat so that you can set your cooking temp. How many other companies have an on off switch to start and turn off the grill?
You can use this grill to make my personal favorite, RIBS !!! and of course chicken, stake and BBQ Sauce. Yes that's right make your own BBQ sauce and use this grill to add the NATURAL SMOKE FLAVOR. The lowest setting on the grill is "SMOKE" I usually use 225 to "cook" the ribs for 2-2.5 hrs and then wrap them in tin foil for another hour or two, or put the tin foil wrapped ribs in the oven (in your house) at the lowest setting (170 for me) for the same amount of time.
And of course I use the Bone Suckin Rib Rub every time. I offer the Bone Suckin Sauce on the side for those who prefer their ribs wet.
Check out their website at Traeger Wood Pellet Grills.

Bone Suckin Sauce



I figured I might as well start out with one of my favorite bbq sauces, Bone Suckin Sauce. I have never met anyone who doesn't like it if not LOVE it. It is a Western North Carolina Sauce which means lots of vineager. It is both sweet and tangy. I personally use it at least once a week if not more. It is the offical BBQ sauce for all our families cookouts and Barbecues. Makes one of the finest dips for your chip too!

Items also worth mentioning:

Also available in thick, hot, thick and hot

Tasting notes:

High viscosity, Sweet and Tangy, light smoke flavor, all natural, Gluten free and NO MSG
