The menu was full of promise, but the air quickly was let out of the balloon. The "brisket dog" ended up being nothing more than a hot dog bun full of chopped beef rather than the all beef wiener I was hoping for, and the smoked spud would have gotten more smokiness from a gas oven than what I tasted in this unspectacular baked potato.
The meat that ended up on my plate was no more interesting. Brisket had been fully trimmed of any and all fat and bark. The flavor was of merely unseasoned roast beef. Ribs weren't much better, just less tender. The meat was devoid of smoke flavor and the sparse seasoning did little to enliven the tired pork. High praise from local reviews brought me here, but I left wondering who would bother with Van's Pig Stand just down the street.

Somehow, I don't think I could get past the former "Taco Tico" building to place an order.
