Strawberry's - Holcomb, MO

Date of dining experience: February 20, 2016

Place: Strawberry's Bar-B-Que

Location: 107 Main St. in Holcomb, MO

Entree: Pork Steak, what else! This is still one of the best pork steaks you could possibly ever eat. Plus the meal, at only $13, comes with three sides and a piece of Texas toast. However, I feel that Strawberry's is declining. It seems that their meats are becoming more greasy and less flavorful. That great smoked flavor is what I really love.

Sides: Texas toast, scalloped potatoes, fried okra, and scalloped potatoes. Yes, I ordered scalloped potatoes as two of my three sides. Reason? I never finish a pork steak and always take about half of it home as leftovers. One of the sides of the delicious scalloped potatoes usually accompanies me home as well.

Drinks: Captain & Coke. Unfortunately, the bad thing about this restaurant is that they don't serve wine and don't have any good beers. They don't have draft beer at all and the only bottle you will see on any table is probably Bud Light. I'm sure you can imagine how upset that makes me. Some people just have no taste at all when it comes to alcohol. They definitely don't know what it's like to drink something that is going to compliment or increase the flavor of food.

It is worth noting that I really enjoy the broccoli buds appetizer, but I rarely get it because there is always so much food in an entree alone!

The atmosphere is, well, exactly what you would expect from a restaurant in a town like Holcomb, but the food is well worth the trip! If you have never eaten here, you owe it to yourself to make a visit. Even if you don't like pork steaks or whatever, have the half smoked chicken (only on Friday and Saturday after 4:00 PM). It is delicious as well, with a little spice to it, and also comes with three sides and a piece of Texas toast.

Try this place out for yourself and let me know what you think! Enjoy!
