The brisket is so moist you don't need sauce but that little sweet kick is a must have 😋

you dont need teeth to eat the beef! very true, they cook it up old school. owned by ood friendly people. Save this Eastside original, they need steady business to keep gentrification at bay. they passed up a $3M offer, so help them out.
