Last night on our way to see our grandson wrestle in Shelby, North Carolina we stopped at Alston Bridges Bar-B-Q.  We had been looking forward to eating here as its one of the few Western Carolina barbecue restaurants influenced by Warner Stamey.  Our disappointment ran high.  The barbecue slaw was good as were the hush puppies- – – (shaking my head) alas alas the pig is on the grass – the barbecue itself was middlin’.

Nice people working there, very crowded… what.
