Best I’ve Had All Week: Boy Scout Troop 355's barbecue

Posted By on Fri, Jan 22, 2010 at 4:06 PM

Just got back from Sharon United Methodist Church, 4411 Sharon Road (across from SouthPark Mall), where Boy Scout Troop 355 is hosting its annual barbecue fundraiser. The group is a past recipient of CL’s "Best Barbecue."

BSA Troop 355’s barbecue has a rich, sweet taste delicately imbued with hickory and their barbecue sandwich is the best food I’ve had all week.

Grill master (and attorney) Dennis Guthrie and the scouts make this mean barbecue over hickory — not oak — wood: “Only place in the city you can find hickory-smoked barbecue,” Guthrie says. (Take that Mallard Creek Presbyterian and BSA Troop 33.) This year they’ve made 11,000 pounds. Barbecue can be bought by the pound or plate/sandwich for takeout (freezes great), or plates and sandwiches for eat-in. They are also selling bottles of their sensational sauce (I recommend the mild Eastern style sauce. They also have Western and Eastern Hot ). Today and tomorrow only.

    Topped with a creamy macadamia nut sauce and sprinkled with toasted macadamia nuts, these banana pancakes are definitely a good reason to get out of bed in the morning.
