Exit 87 Bbq And Catering

Okay, so, listen up, because I have got to tell you about this place. You know how sometimes you just get that craving? That deep, primal urge for something smoky, something meaty, something that just screams "comfort food" from the rooftops? Yeah, me too. And let me tell you, I found the ultimate cure for that craving.

It’s called Exit 87 BBQ and Catering. Pretty straightforward, right? No fancy, pretentious names here. Just good old-fashioned barbecue. And honestly, isn’t that the best kind?

So, the other day, I was cruising down the highway, minding my own business, probably humming along to some questionable 80s power ballad (don't judge me), when I saw the sign. And something in my gut just said, "Pull over, my friend. Your destiny awaits." And wow, was it ever right.

Walking into Exit 87 is like stepping into a warm hug. You know that feeling? That cozy, "I'm home" vibe? It’s got that in spades. The smell alone. Oh. My. Goodness. It’s a symphony of hickory, mesquite, and… well, pure barbecue magic. It hits you the second you open the door. Seriously, it’s enough to make your knees weak. Or maybe that’s just the anticipation.

The people working there? Super friendly. Like, genuinely happy to see you. No fake smiles here, folks. They’re the kind of people who make you feel like you’ve been coming there for years, even if it’s your first time. That’s a big plus in my book. Because who wants to eat amazing food while being served by grumpy trolls? Nobody, that's who.

Now, let's get to the main event. The food. Because, let’s be honest, that’s why we’re all here, right? We’re not here for the ambiance, although it’s lovely. We’re here for the meat. And Exit 87 delivers. Oh boy, does it deliver.

I started with their pulled pork. Because you have to start with the pulled pork, don’t you? It’s the foundational pillar of any good BBQ joint. And theirs? It’s flawless. Tender, juicy, with just the right amount of smoky char. It practically melts in your mouth. I’m talking like, butter melted in your mouth. But, you know, pork.

And the sauce! They have a few different kinds, and you absolutely must try them all. My personal favorite was their sweet and tangy. It’s got a kick, but it’s not overpowering. It just… complements the pork perfectly. It’s like a little flavor party happening in your mouth. A very delicious, very smoky party.

Then came the brisket. Oh, the brisket. If you’re a brisket snob like me, you’re going to weep tears of joy. It’s cooked low and slow, for what feels like an eternity, and you can taste it. It’s so incredibly tender, it practically falls apart with just a nudge. And that bark? That beautiful, smoky, flavorful bark? Chef’s kiss. Seriously.

They slice it thick, too. None of that paper-thin stuff. You get a good, substantial piece of brisket that says, "I am here, and I am delicious." And you just nod and say, "Yes, brisket, you are."

And don't even get me started on the ribs. They do both pork and beef ribs. The pork ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender, with that perfect sticky glaze. They’re the kind of ribs you’ll be licking your fingers over. No shame. Absolutely none. Embrace the finger-licking!

The beef ribs? Oh, man. They’re like little smoky boulders of pure happiness. Meaty, flavorful, and just… satisfying. If you’re looking for something to really sink your teeth into, the beef ribs are your ticket.

But it’s not just about the meat, right? You need those sides. Those glorious, glorious sides. And Exit 87 has got you covered. Their mac and cheese is creamy, cheesy perfection. It’s the kind of mac and cheese that makes you want to write poetry about it. Or at least write a strongly worded letter to your past self for not discovering it sooner.

And their coleslaw? It’s not your average, bland stuff. It’s got a nice, zesty crunch to it. Refreshing. Perfect for cutting through all that rich, smoky goodness. It’s like a palate cleanser, but way more fun.

Then there are the baked beans. Now, baked beans can be hit or miss, right? Some are too sweet, some are just… mush. But these? These are the real deal. Smoky, savory, with little bits of bacon in them. They’re a side dish that deserves its own standing ovation. Seriously. Imagine little baked bean cheerleaders doing flips for you. That’s how good they are.

I also tried their cornbread. And let me tell you, it’s not just bread. It’s a fluffy, slightly sweet cloud of deliciousness. Perfect for sopping up any extra sauce, or just enjoying on its own. I might have eaten a whole piece before my main meal even arrived. Don’t tell anyone.

And if you’re feeling adventurous, try their fried pickles. Oh. My. Word. Crispy, tangy, and utterly addictive. I swear, I could eat a whole plate of those and call it a meal. They’re the perfect little crunchy bite to go with your smoky, tender meat.

Now, what I really love about Exit 87 is their commitment to authenticity. You can tell they care about what they’re doing. They’re not just churning out food; they’re crafting it. With passion. With love. And with a whole lot of smoky goodness.

And the catering! Oh, yes, the catering. Because let’s be real, who doesn’t want amazing BBQ at their next party or event? Forget those sad little platters of lukewarm chicken wings. You need something that’s going to make your guests rave for weeks. And Exit 87 is your answer.

Imagine your next birthday party, your office holiday bash, your kid’s graduation… suddenly transformed into a culinary masterpiece. They’ll bring the smoker, they’ll bring the sides, they’ll bring the whole darn shebang. And you? You’ll be the hero. The one who knows how to throw a party with serious flavor.

They handle everything, too. From setting up to serving to cleaning up. You can actually relax and enjoy your own party. Shocking, I know. No more stressing about cooking for a crowd. No more burnt offerings. Just pure, unadulterated barbecue joy for everyone.

I’ve heard from friends who have used them for events, and they all say the same thing: phenomenal. Their guests were blown away. People were asking for seconds, thirds, and even leftovers. It’s the kind of catering that leaves a lasting impression, in the best possible way.

So, if you’re planning anything, anything at all, and you want to impress your guests with food that’s unforgettable, give Exit 87 a call. Seriously, it’s a no-brainer. Your taste buds will thank you. Your guests will thank you. The universe will thank you.

It’s the kind of place that makes you want to roll up your sleeves, dig in, and forget about the world for a little while.

Seriously though, if you’re anywhere near Exit 87, make a detour. It’s worth it. Every single smoky, delicious bite is worth it. You’ll be planning your next visit before you even finish your first plate. That’s a guarantee. Or, you know, a very strong prediction.

And if you do use them for catering, please, please, please tell me about it. I need to live vicariously through your party photos. And maybe I can sneak in for a taste. You know, for quality control purposes. It’s a tough job, but someone’s gotta do it.

Okay, I’m done. For now. But my stomach is rumbling. I think it’s time for another trip. Anyone want to join me? I’m buying… well, I’m suggesting you go. My wallet might not survive another trip this week. But my taste buds? They’re begging for more.

Go forth and barbecue, my friends. And may your plates be full and your napkins be stained with deliciousness. You can thank me later. Or, better yet, thank Exit 87.
