I hope the show will confirm or disprove my theory about their using deli-style meat, instead of raw top round for instance. I agree their sides are unspeakably bad. I was on the radio today today talking BBQ, and the conversation predictably veered toward pit beef, sort of our local variant. Listeners called in with lots of good leads, which I will post soon.

I found the meat not as flavorful as I am used to and the sides are dreadful: overcooked or underprepared. (The beans were mushy!) There used to be a place by Bayview (on Eastern) but they've changed to cater to the Latino community in the area.
