Mark this date down, Tuesday January 20, this is when we went out to dinner at The Original Ridgewood Barbeque restaurant in Bluff City for some long overdue, delicious, mouthwatering hickory smoked barbeque!
A staple in these parts, opened back in 1948.
The closed sign was lit when we arrived just before 7PM but they happily let us in - welcoming southern hospitality at it's best -
A blue cheese dip, with saltine crackers, was brought to the table shortly after we were seated, and it was tasty!
For my meal, I went with the BBQ pork sandwich, which came with beans, slaw and fries, AND a sweet tea to wash it all down with. The beans were SO darn tasty, I could have just eaten a bowl of those and been satisfied - HAHAHA, who am I kidding!
But wait there's more, dipping the fries in the blue cheese dip was amazing too, as was the coleslaw - crisp, slightly sweet and creamy -
Now full disclosure - I only hate half of my sandwich. I took it to go with the remaining slaw and fries. I didn't want to make a pig (get it) outta myself.
The waitress was great! She did not rush us at all, rather she doted on us. She even brought each of us a to go cup filled with sweet tea instead of pouring it out (as a part of closing). We took our time, had a nice fun and relaxing meal - the best company!
Another tasty Tennessee foodie experience!
BTW, looking for a good local tailor who specializes in hemming and expanding the waist of britches...
