This Saturday – September 11 – we’re taking Picnic! on the road again one last time for 2010. We’re heading back to Andes, NY for the Town Wide Yard Sale.

If it rains, you’ll find us in our soon to be new location in the back of Hogan’s.

We’ll keep serving until we run out of food. We look forward to seeing everyone out for a day of fun & BBQ in Andes.

Come & enjoy all the BBQ pursuits of 2010 as we wrap up the season with a Labor Day weekend Picnic! in our usual location – 1758 County Highway 41 Roxbury. We’ll be staying open late & cooking extra racks of ribs for your holiday weekend Q needs. As we expect things to be fairly busy on the 4th, we suggest you call in your order as early as possible to guarantee your BBQ fix.

On Saturday August 28, we’re putting the spotlight on locally produced meat & vegetables with a special menu. In addition to our usual BBQ menu, we’ll be featuring menu items made with meat from Sap Bush Hollow & sides created with produce from local farms including Madeline & Tovey’s organic farm in Roxbury & Shaul Farm in Fultonham. We will also be staying open later – until 8pm unless the food sells out – to serve your dinner needs.

As each of these local specials are limited, we suggest calling in advance & we’ll reserve your order.

Loco Local! Picnic! Specials

Sap Bush Hollow Pasture Raised Pork Loin Sammie ………………..13.00
Pork loin coated in our Cha Cha Dust BBQ Rub, smoked over local hardwood, sliced to order & served with your choice of toppings made from local produce.

Sap Bush Hollow Grass Fed Beef Short Ribs ……………………….. 12.00
1/2 lb of chunky beef rib goodness coated in our Cha Cha Java Cinnamon Dust & smoked over local hardwood. Served with your choice of slaw made from local produce.

Sap Bush Hollow Handmade French Garlic Sausage …………….. 10.00
A French sausage made with pork, fresh garlic & red wine. It’s smoked then quickly grilled to crisp it up. Served on a crusty roll with caramelized local onions & a side of slaw made from local produce.

Sap Bush Hollow Grass Fed Beef Tacos …………………………… 10.00
Two tacos made with seasoned steak – grilled & sliced thin – served on flour tortillas with your choice of toppings made from local produce.

SIDES ………………………..small 3.00 / large 5.00
For this special Picnic! – all of our usual sides will be using local produce. We’re also featuring a few special sides for this event:

Cukelear Salad
Here’s a wicked version of a Cucumber Salad. Rather than just a plain old vinegar dressing, we let these cukes marinate in our North Carolina Vinegar Sauces for a few days. The result? A thermocukelear salad. Not for the timid.

Firecracker Slaw
Take our Sweet & Sour Slaw – add some heat in the form of local peppers & hot sauce – the result is the return of Firecracker Slaw. For those who like a little heat in their slaw. Tangy spicy.

Cha Cha Pepper Salad
Think Pico de gallo or salsa fresca or – as one friend of the Hut calls it – “Salsa for Grown Ups”. A fresh chunky mix of tomatoes, peppers, onions & spices. Great as a topping or just eat it as a side. Mildly spicy.

Southern Dill Potato Salad
It’s the return of one of our most popular salads – this time with a completely local produce twist. Red potatoes, sweet onions & celery in a sour cream & dill dressing. A cool side for our hot BBQ. Not spicy.

Sauce of the Moment: Shopsin Facemelter
We’re bringing back this popular Sauce of the Moment for the last two Picnic! events. A blazing hot sauce based concoction with black pepper & cider vinegar. Definitely not for the timid & certainly not for kids. Just plain hot.

HOMEMADE ICE CREAM …………………….. 2.00
(small batch 4 oz servings)

Cinnamon
Made with Vietnamese Cinnamon. Earthy with a small amount of bite.

Better Than Sex
Made using the Better Than Sex tea from Tay Tea in Andes. “A sinfully delicious rooibos blend with bits of Belgian dark chocolate and peppermint. A must for chocoholics, more often than not, this tea deserves it’s name!” The ice cream picks up on the best of these flavors.

Do not forget! We’re also serving our usual BBQ menu as well as these local specials.

On Saturday August 21, we’re back at the usual Picnic! locale – 1758 County Hwy 41 Roxbury (1/2 mile past the Roxbury Motel) – with an expanded menu. We’ve added BBQ combo plates back in for the remainder of the Picnic! schedule. Plus we’re cooking up 12 racks of ribs this weekend for all you rib lovers out there. If that were not enough, we’re extending our hours to 7pm to accommodate dinner orders.

As always, if you want to be guaranteed a BBQ fix, we recommend calling your order in early. We’ll have it ready when you get here.

Coming August 28: Loco Local! - our usual BBQ menu with specials made from local meat & produce. Details & menu coming this weekend.
