I recently had the honor to taste some of the most FANTASTIC BBQ I have ever tasted. Smokehouse on Shelby is a small, local bbq restaurant located in the historic Fountain Square Arts District (Fountain Square Theatre Building). The pulled pork was totally juicy, amazing and the bbq sauce is homemade and lip smacking good. I suggest the mild and hot sauce, they both made me happy. My second runner up was the beef brisket, followed by the bbq chicken and finally the bbq rubbed ribs.
AND…I can’t forget the fried biscuits with homemade apple butter. I ate six. Dang. Mouth watering goodness.
No matter when you come to check out this wonderful gem in Fountain Square, there is always TONS to do in the area. Music, nightlife, art, small local shops…you name it and Fountain Square has it. The new Cultural Trail is currently being constructed in the area (Summer 2011) and the businesses need your help more than ever! For some Indianapolis fun and culture, make a night out of the Smokehouse and then some Duckpin bowling!
Who loves BBQ…I do! Ummm….good!
