Here’s a few things to try at your next visit:
To Eat
Hickory Bacon BBQ Cheeseburger
A good, classic burger made from Wobbly Boots’ special blend of meat. The bacon is perfectly crisp, with the house BBQ and all the toppings. Pair that with an upgrade of delicious Texas fries: queso, cheddar-jack cheese, bacon, and green onions.
The Wobbly Boots Sampler
Can’t decide what to get? Go with the sampler and get four of each! With huge, crispy onion rings (batter is good enough to eat by itself); original, bone-in wings with the mustard-based sauce; spare ribs slathered in sauce that comes off the bone; and bacon-wrapped shrimp to mix it up.
BBQ Chicken & Ribs Combo
Sometimes, you’re just craving both. Make sure you’re nice and hungry for the ½ lb chicken and the ½ slab of pork spare ribs in the house sauce. Paired with a side of creamy mac n cheese… it doesn’t get much better than that.
To Drink
Michelob Ultra
Light, crisp, and exceptionally easy-drinking, an Ultra on draft is a go-to for beer lovers who want refreshment without the weight.
Perfect Old Fashioned
This Old Fashioned leans rich and smooth thanks to Maker’s Mark bourbon. The simple syrup and bitters provide balance, while the Luxardo cherry and orange peel add just the right hint of citrus and spice.
Bahama Mama
This island-inspired cocktail is a tropical explosion. The spiced and coconut rums create a bold, boozy base, while banana liqueur adds mellow sweetness. Layers of orange, pineapple, and a splash of grenadine make it fruity and easy to drink.
