Southern BBQ has finally come to Verdun!\n\nWhile Black Strap sits on the same digs as the recently-vacated-and-still-mourned Casa Manolo, the ambiance is completely different. First off, it's extremely informal, the way BBQ should be, with rolls of brown towel paper on each table, service is very friendly and casual. The two large tables up front look like gigantic picnic tables.\n\nThen there is the food! OMG Reader! This is probably one of the few places in Montreal that finally has gotten American  Southern BBQ right and done the right way. No disgusting drippy sauces and coating of brown sugar like Bar B Barn. No half-assed attempt at \"faux\" BBQ like Bofinger. The got the smoking, the got the rub, they got it all right. Prices are also very reasonable and the place has a virtual line up almost every night. (Please for the love of God, stay in Verdun!).\n\nThey literally just opened up a few weeks back so I'm guessing there may be new additions to their menu, because for the moment there are no desserts. If they do it, do it all the way! Bring on the Shoofly Pie, Sweet Potato Pie, Red Velvet Cake, Hummingbird Cake, Peach Cobbler, sun brewed iced tea and Mint Juleps!
