Pat’s Barbecue - Salt Lake City

There's just something about this location that is generally better! I've been here early when there was very few people, and I come during peak live music times. The food and service never disappoint! They say the recipes are the same as the other location, but whatever the reason, it just tastes better here. Even when slammed, the staff is always friendly and helpful. The only less than awesome thing would be their limited immediate parking, but during busy times, you can park in the large lot just to the West.

Me and my brother ordered mac and cheese, chicken, and some brisket. The mac and cheese was bland and boring (Box mac and cheese is better) the brisket was flavorless and seemed like it had been sitting under a warmer for hours. My brother didn't even eat his smoked chicken is was cold and raw in the middle. Our friend got a burger. Not sure how you mess that up but it was super gross and non seasoned. The 2 barbecue sauces taste like watered down ketchup. The baked beans were super good at least. This was our first meal in this town while we are here for a week and I hope it's the only bad one. Well done pat's?

The food was good great. The only disappointment was the cocktail. I ordered high end whiskey and it was served in a plastic tumbler, which just isn t done. We also ordered a tipsy mermaid, which was good.

I got quarter chicken and it was tough and dry. I couldn't even eat it. The potato salad was mushy. Nothing tasted fresh except the collards . Warmed over. The building was hot inside as well until the waitress actually turned the air on. The inside was seperated into weird long hallways and sections so we didn't know where to go.

Got their 3 meat combo to try a little of everything. The chicken was the best, juicy and meaty. The ribs were a little disappointing, they were meaty and juicy with good flavor but not fall off the bone. The brisket was bad, asked for a fatty cut and got some of the driest toughest brisket I've ever had. The sides were
