"Located on the same property as Sweeten Creek Brewing, with plenty of outdoor picnic tables, this Connecticut-based chain’s spot in South Asheville is home to the same Kansas City-style barbeque as its first location on Coxe Avenue but boasts fewer tourist crowds and lots of parking. You can’t go wrong with starters like “moink” balls (smoked bacon-wrapped meatballs), spicy cheese curds, or the unforgettable Bear Balls — a blend of mac and cheese, pulled pork, and cornbread and bacon bits. Follow any of them with your choice brisket, pulled pork, or the burnt ends." - Brook Bolen
