Smalley's Caribbean Barbeque

We went to Stillwater recently for a late summer visit on a Saturday afternoon. We wanted to visit a couple breweries from the Northern Ale Guide we've been working on. And of course, we were looking forward to returning to Smalley's BBQ. 
I had the ribs with BBQ shrimp skewer and mac and sides of mac and cheese topped with bacon and roasted sweet potatoes topped with caramelized pork and sausage. The ribs are great, you don't even really need the sauces, but they are nice if you want to add spice. The mac and cheese was amazing, so rich and creamy and I loved the sweet potatoes. And yes, the meat on top of them really did make them better!
John had pork shoulder and ropas viejas, which is Cuban style pulled beef with sides of fries and coleslaw. Both of his meats were very tender and juicy with great smoke flavoring the meats.

I don't think the service is anything to get excited about, but it was fine throughout our visit. The food is the real star here and certainly makes it worth the trip to Stillwater each and every time.
