Saw’s BBQ – Homewood, AL

So a few weeks ago I wrote about Saw’s Juke Joint. I enjoyed a great pulled pork sandwich but did not get to try their famous stuffed potato because they had sold out.  So for lunch, I decided to try their sister restaurant, Saw’s BBQ, located in Homewood, Alabama (in the Edgewood area).

I could smell the BBQ as I walked up to the door. This location is smaller than the other but there is plenty of seating outside if you cannot find a place inside. They are extremely busy during lunch; the line was out the door but the staff was really efficient so the line moved fast.

They have eight different stuffed potatoes to choose from. When it was my turn to order I went for the pork tater – which has green onions, bacon, and pulled pork layered on top of a giant baked potato and smothered with cheese and BBQ sauce.  The potato was huge. It was a good thing that I did not order any sides.

Their BBQ sauce has a sweet and tangy flavor that pairs so well with the pork. Their pork is so tender and moist and had nice chunks of bark mixed in. The potato is cooked perfectly too, no hard uncooked sections that you can sometimes find with large potatoes. Putting these to ingredients together makes for an amazing meal.

I was thrilled to finally get to try Saw’s potato. It was worth the wait. Now I understand why everyone recommends them. Check them out at www.sawsbbq.com
