Musings from a foodie…

I’m a sucker for good old-fashioned brisket. We have a great place at home in Kittery so, while traveling in Canada, we decided to give “northern” brisket a try. If you happen to be north of the border exploring the eastern seaboard, you should consider Peddlers Creek BBQ [* * * * * ] in Quispamsis, New Brunswick. There is a “BBQ Platter for 2” for the very hungry but, we found the House-Smoked Beef Brisket Dinner (for 1) more than adequate for the two of us. It came with a brisket smothered in house-made maple-blueberry sauce (from a choice of five different options). The cornbread, excellent French fries and delicate cole slaw accompaniments were great along with a special order of mac & cheese with a hint of buffalo sauce. We’d go back but we’re off to Newfoundland and more options north of the border. BTW – Suz agrees with me and feels it’s “one of the best BBQ places we’ve been to in a long time” – a hearty acknowledgement of the five stars. Now, about the travel in getting up north…
