EARLY FATHER'S DAY AT FAMOUS DAVE'S

While visiting down in Nashville our son took all of us to Famous Dave's for his dad's father's day meal. That was the first time I had ate anything there except the lunch menu. It was all so good. My husband just went on about the brisket how tender it was. I loved the mac and cheese and of course I will have to find a recipe like it to put on here. I loved the ribs. They had a BBQ sauce which was Sweet and Sassy that I loved. I went and bought some of it at Kroger's. I can't find it up here where we live. It is so good to dip the ribs and chicken in even tho they have BBQ sauce on them. We loved the frys that was served with the food so my son found some of them at Trader Joe's which we do not have around here also.
It is a really good place to go eat with a large family. I am not trying to promote it in any way but the food was all so good. My husband had never ate there before and he sure did enjoy it. So this father's day take your dad out to eat. I sure wish mine was alive to do this with. You really don't know how much you miss them until they are gone.
