Smoke Daddy's Review of Carters Station
UPDATE: <<Charles Carter passed away in 2011, and Carter's Station has closed it's doors>>
Roadhouse that happens to serve some food (including a bit of bbq). I can recommend the "Texas Toothpicks" sausage sandwich... and help yourself to some pinto beans from the crock pot.
MAIN FARE:
- Only BBQ options are chopped sandwich or sausage sandwich, so we order both
- Chopped Brisket - Is tough. Microwave reheat didn't help.
- Sausage - Salty, with a nice spice on this finish. Yummy. This stuff was even good after being microwaved!
OTHER FARE:
- Beans - Soft pintos with a little spice on finish. Served in a crock pot... help yourself.
- Texas Toothpicks - Fried strips of jalapeno and onions. Probably a frozen product, but hot & crips and very good.
- Sauce - From a bottle?
ATMOSPHERE:
- "Joint" drive-up appeal
- Parking lot is covered with bottle caps
- Roadhouse - Reminds me of a cross between Country Tavern and Big Smith's.
- Bar first; food a distant second
- BBQ meats are micro-warmed
- Would like to visit on Fri or Sat night!
