I love the motto of Red’s
– “let there be meat.” On entry, you are presented with a ‘Meat Bible’ and can choose
from a variety of delicious meat dishes. The portions are big, the meat is
tender and the atmosphere is one of no-nonsense good food. To start, I chose the swine fries; I am obsessed with pulled pork and sweet potato fries, so I couldn’t resist choosing this loaded fries dish, covered in smoked pork, grilled cheese, jalapeños and salsa. It was huge but delicious and bursting full of heat and flavour; the perfect start to my epic meal.
For my main, I couldn’t opting for even more pulled pork and chose the Red’s Pulled Pork. A huge pile of BBQ pulled pork came with slaw, cracklings and apple sauce. A little like other restaurants, you can choose either two ‘humble’ sides or one larger ‘divine’ side. I opted for the giant onion rings and fries; I particuarly love the huge onion rings which are super crispy and gigantic! It’s one of my favourite meals at Red’s as I love the combination of delicious pulled pork, crispy onion rings and sweet apple sauce.
