Take a lovely summer night and mix it with a fanastic barbque and you’ll probably say that it just doesn’t get any better than this. Pair the evening’s courses with beers from Michigan Short’s brewery and you now have yourself a moment in …

Bacon and Maple Paczki!
Tuesday was Paczki Day here in Detroit. For those outside of the midwest, paczki are basically filled doughnuts. They have a more traditional meaning, but that’s not the focus here.
We sampled paczki filled with liquor, which were quite good. The highlight, however, was the Pig candy and maple paczek (by @joefoodie) from Lazybone’s Smokehouse in Roseville.
Pig candy is smoked bacon coated in brown sugar. It’s sweet, salty, and peppery. A perfect food. The maple glaze was super sugary, but worked well against the bacon. The paczek was not filled with anything, which goes against tradition but so does candied bacon. I’d definitely eat this again.

Probably the most publicized restaurant in Detroit is Slows BBQ. Coverage in the New York Times, segments on the Travel Channel, and mentioned in numerous other media outlets have made Slows Detroit’s go to destination for anyone visiting the city.
Sure, the location is cool and the beer list is fantastic, but people travel to Corktown for the food. Check out The Longhorn (by TheHungryDudes). Tender beef brisket, shredded smoked gouda, onion marmalade, and spicy sauce are stacked on Texas toast.
It’s easy to get lost in this sandwich. Each of the flavors intermingle perfectly giving a different taste sensation with each bite. At one moment, smokiness shines through followed by a spicy kick from the sauce then the delicate sweet earthiness of the marmalade.
The Longhorn is a special sandwich.

Restaurant of the Day: Round House BBQ
Seems like a new BBQ joint is opening every week in the metro Detroit area. Round House BBQ is one of the latest to open. Their macaroni and cheese (by TheHungryDudes) harkens back to cafeteria style mac & cheese, but in a good way. Sharp cheese sauce covers soft spiral macaroni – no golden brown crust, but this is a comforting side dish.
