New BBQ in South London
There is a new "KC Style" BBQ joint just opened in Clapham, London, UK.
"Bodeans" is a true US style ribs, pulled pork and brisket joint. Regular
"order at the counter" style.
From my first two visits there, I can say that the Baby Back Ribs were
excellent and the Spares were over done, but well flavoured. Sauce on the
racks is really just a glazing quantity, with three different sauces
(regular BBQ, Smoked Hickory and Chipotle Hot) available on the side. They
also have a vinegar sauce in shaker bottles, although personally I thought
this lacked bite.
The pulled Pork looked and tasted good - my wife finished hers anyway.
We haven't tried the brisket yet, although the beans I had on Saturday had
plenty of burnt ends in them to add loads of taste.
All in all, it's a pretty good BBQ joint. the Baby Backs were outstanding,
but I was a bit dissapointed with the Spares. The beans are excellent, but
the 'slaw is mediocre.
I will be using this place quite a lot when I can't be bothered to fire up
the WSM and just fancy a quick rack of ribs to go.
