Fat Pat’s Barbecue and Brewery in Spring Grove is a brewery and a coffee shop most of the week, a Texas style BBQ restaurant one day a week(Friday). This little gem is also attached to the side of Red’s IGA super market in case you need extra ingredients for your meal.
What to get
Smoked Ribs & Mac & Cheese
Ribs fell right off the bone on the ribs and everything tasted “clean”. Very simple salt & pepper rub, and a kiss of smoke highlights the insanely tender, juicy, flavorful ribs. The BBQ sauce is a vinegar based sauce, without too much sugar covering up the taste of the beautifully smoked meats.
I regret ordering mac and cheese as soon as I ordered it then regretted not ordering more after I tasted it. I expected a bright orange mac and cheese that would taste extra processed, but got this beautiful silky, creamy, simple but so delicious mac and cheese. A perfect side dish to the bbq I got.
The beer was really good and above expectation as well. 😍
When to go
They started serving BBQ at 4pm, and the whole dining room filled up as soon as the clock striked 4, with a line out the door! ❤️❤️❤️
I heard they are also serving smoked then deep fried wings on Thursdays and burgers on the weekends. Follow them on social media listed below for the latest updates!
Excited to be back to try more food.
