My Review

"Texas-style" Beef Brisket – No smoke ring. No smoke ring = not smoked. In fact, a ring of fat was still present around the perimeter. When I attempted to (gasp) cut the brisket, yes cut, my fork bounced off and went flying through the air. If you know brisket, if you've been to a proper BBQ, then you'd know the meet should have gently fallen apart and melted in your mouth. In reality, this amounted to a piece of microwaved roast beef that in fact, was indigestible, and barely edible.

1/4 BBQ Chicken – Interestingly, the chicken DID have a smoke ring. Though, not much of one, and it still lacked the smoky sweet taste or scent one would have expected. It was also smothered in a generic, but tasty BBQ sauce. At first it looked promising, but, like the brisket, it was a dry, disappointing disaster. Fortunately it was edible with copious amounts of beer washing it down.

Pulled Pork – The pulled pork would have been delicious if it had not been so dry. It soaked up BBQ sauce like a sponge, and lacked a strong smoky flavor. Overall, it was mediocre but recommended if your life depended on eating here.

Potato Salad – Generic, probably store bought. Tasty, but nothing special. Edible.

Baked Beans- Generic, probably store bought. Not much meat, if any, and lacking in any character. This is what you would expect from a can of baked beans.

Beer Battered Onion Rings – Beer batter anything and it's going to be good. Unless of course, you put so much batter on the onion that you're left with a perfectly crisp outside and a grease saturated dough ball inside. What you have then my friends, is a big bunch of gooey disgusting shit that my dog wouldn't even eat. Which is exactly what you should expect from the menu at Glass City.

Rating – 1/2 star (The food finally passed through my system 12 hours later so I had to give it credit for being edible)

Pros – There's draft beer at the bar. Notice I'm not mentioning the food.

Cons – An indigestable bowling ball of food in your gut.
