Southern BBQ is something I have always appreciated. There are few things more satisfying than good pulled pork, cheesy mac & cheese, and a scratch made Arnold Palmer. Craving some good BBQ but not wanting to return to any previously visited places, I happened upon Lancaster's BBQ.

Before I even get started on the food, I have to say the most note-worthy aspect about the place itself. There was not a single television in the place! This is shocking for a BBQ joint, or really for any other restaurant these days. I appreciated that there was no looking around for a score, asking to change the channel to a different game, or general distractions about the place.
Then came the awesome drinks and food.
The sweetest sweet tea I ever tasted in my life for Nick, and Arnold Palmer for me. The lemonade was just tart enough to cut the sweet. These drinks were coupled with fresh fried hush puppies. For all of you Northerners, hush puppies? Basically a chicken nugget of the corn that wraps around a corn dog. It's interesting. I still don't know how I feel about them.
Dinner was the sampler. We chose fried pickles, wings, and mozzarella sticks (duh). The wings and mozzarella sticks were awesome, but the fried pickles were easily the best I ever had. Don't knock it until you've tried it. They're best when they are in "chip" as opposed to "spear" form as they appeared at some restaurants in DC. Dip in some ranch and you have the greatest appetizer in the world. Or dinner... Sorry mom and Kim, there was nothing nutritious about this meal except for the pickles. Pickles are fruit after all!
Yours,
Becky
