Today’s Test Kitchen is The Full Monty sandwich debuting next Thursday. Basically, we took everything on the menu, put it on a couple of tortillas & rolled it up. It clocked in at 3 pounds of sandwich! Below is a photo of Cherie picking up half to give you a sense of scale. We’ll be offering a very limited amount of these monsters next week!

You might have noticed a new menu item to the left. The 8 Days Of Pigmas is our 1st annual celebration of the BBQ holiday that falls between Christmas & New Year’s Day. St. Pigmas & his helper cows bring different BBQ treats to the BBQ faithful around the world every day for 8 days.

We’ve posted the full menu & schedule on The 8 Days Of Pigmas page.

It’s a beautiful sunny Sunday in Andes. After last night’s sell out, we’re back with more hot fresh BBQ to satisfy your Q cravings. Eat in or take out. Ribs & Pig Wings coming out of the smoker at Rib O’Clock (2:30pm).

We are running a little low on sauces – so if you have a favorite be sure to mention you want some when calling in an order. If we still have it, we’ll set some aside for you.

Looking like another sell out tonight!

Already gone:
Ribs
Brisket
Smoked Mac & Cheese
BBQ beans
Garlic Smashed Potatoes.

Haaaavvvveee you tried our Brisket, Turkey & Slaws? We’ve still got those…

We’re putting The Junkyard Dog on the menu for dinner special tonight! 2 slices plus a choice of Mustard Slaw or Sweet & Sour Slaw & bread. Add a side for an extra $1.50.

Not familiar with The Junkyard Dog? It’s 2 lbs of hot Italian sausage rolled around 2 lbs of our Trashan Chili & wrapped in 2 lbs of bacon. We then rub it with our Cha Cha Hut house BBQ rub & put it in the smoker for a few hours. It’s meat heaven!

A Hogan’s Pizza/Cha Cha Hut co-production: pulled pork, Thundernagi BBQ sauce & cheddar cheese

We’re Back!

At noon on Thursday October 14th, we resume our regular hours & bring you all the great Q you’ve come to love. Rib O’Clock will be around 3pm as usual. If you want ribs, please consider calling in an order at our new number: 845.676.6222.

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.
