Sweet P’s Barbeque and Soul House was featured on the “Ribs” episode of “United Tastes of America” this past week.The Cooking Channel show is hosted by Jeffrey Saad, who came in second on “Next Food Network Star.” The restaurant has been on national TV before. Adam Richman attempted the Gigante Burrito Challenge on the Knoxville episode of “Man v. Food.”
Sweet P’s is three miles up the road from the Riverside Business & Events Center, where Einstein Simplified does an all-ages improv show once a month. My wife and I tried the ribs on Friday night. They looked good enough to put on TV. Unfortunately the meat wasn’t quite as succulent as I hoped. When perfectly cooked, the rib bones should slide out easily. I also ordered a pulled chicken sandwich, which was excellent. Chicken doesn’t seem to get the good press that pork does on barbeque TV shows.
Oh! I am so glad you said that because I usually get the BBQ chicken for the lower fat content at BBQ places. It is also easier on my reflux, also because of the lower fat content. I will definitely order that when we get the group together to go, hopefully in November. Angeline said the cast of the Outsiders is in need of a good bonding experience. BBQ and Improv might be just the thing! I will try to put together a flier for her to bring for when she proposes it to the director and the cast at the next Theater Club Officer’s meeting. Even if they don’t do it, I am hoping for a family trip out there. I hope you had a good show last night!
