Fette Sau, BBQ

We ventured out to Brooklyn the other night to finally try out Fette Sau. We got there about 8 o'clock or so - which was perfect timing. When we were sitting down to eat, we noticed the line was out the door.
The secret to Fette Sau is the smoking process. They smoke their meats with a blend of red and white oak, Maple, Beech and Cherry wood. (All locally supplied). The BBQ is dry rubbed and optional sauce is served on the side.

The eating arrangements are definitely different - you stand in a line and order your food by weight. I got a 1/4 pound of pork belly and 1/2 pound of beef ribs and two sides: potato salad and coleslaw. (Rolls are included) They serve it on a sheet of wax paper on a silver tray - then you go find a spot to eat at a huge picnic table. (Seating is family style, so if you hate strangers - you won't like this)


We sat outside in a little area next to some firewood (which is why my tray is on my lap).

This is the area that we sat in. Cute and rustic right? It's like someone's back yard...


I took this off the website, but this is what the counter looks like when you order your food...such a display of yummy meats!

Ribs!
