Yum..yum...yum.... BBQ Pulled Smoked Pork Sandwich and Fried Pickles. Cannot think of a better way to begin a trip to Alabama. After literally 22 hours in the air and on the ground we arrived in Birmingham tired and hungry. After a brief 30 minute stop at my hotel to shower, we jumped into a sedan and headed to Tuscaloosa to watch the Alabama vs Arkansas football game. I gave the driver two instructions. Please stop for BBQ and beer on the way to Tuscaloosa. He gladly cooperated and had us parked at Southern Legacy BBQ and Brew within a few minutes. Since we do not have any good BBQ in Hawaii, I really wanted to order everything on the menu and hang out here for hours. No time for that on this day as it was burning into our tailgating time in Tuscaloosa. We bellied up to the bar and ordered a cold one before ordering food. I went with the regular Carolina BBQ Sandwich ($7.49). Pulled Smoked Pork with Spicy Cole Slaw served with Pickles on a Kaiser Bun. I added a good dose of the Sweet Heat BBQ Sauce and took a big bite. Wow......the bun was buttery and added a layer of flavor along with the Pork, Slaw and Pickles. This sandwich was delicious. One of the best BBQ Sandwiches I have tasted in many years. Loved it. The Fried Pickles ($5.99) were also delicious. Lightly breaded so you could really taste the pickle. Loved these too!
