Long lines at Cattleack got you down? Crossbuck BBQ is just around the corner, and can calm your barbecue cravings any day of the week.
Normally, we'd avail ourselves of a two-meat combination, but at first glance, that wasn't an option at Crossbuck. There was a"Big Boy" tray that promised two medium portions of meat and two sides, but it honestly sounded like a lot of food for one person and was $31.99. Instead, we ordered a brisket tray , then added a small side of pork belly burnt ends for $8 more.
We also weren't offered an option between lean and moist brisket, so our tray arrived with lean slices piled high into a paper boat. Crossbuck's lean brisket is quite lean, and our first thought was it was light on bark. The slices were juicy and tender, and the bits of bark we did get were quite good — we just wanted more of it. Again, we assume there's moist brisket to be had, but the onus is on you to pipe up and make your intentions known.
Crossbuck hits a lot of high marks in our book. In addition to making barbecue available across large swaths of the day, the restaurant is a comfortable spot to post up with some smoky fare and a group of friends. There's also beer and canned wine available, as well as a few boozy slushes.
