Hubba hubba, look at this one! 🤤
Some desserts are worth getting a little messy over. This Cherry Crisp recipe has been in the family for decades. Fresh outta the oven and topped with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, and a cherry (because one more won’t hurt). Sweet, a little tart, and sure to get the taste buds guessing.

Available all May.

Alright, I’ve been keeping something warm for you. Two new plates just wandered onto the menu like they’ve been here all along.

Sausage, peppers, and onions. And not just any sausage. Gianelli, of course.

And then there’s the beef brisket. Dry rubbed with a little secret I’m not at liberty to discuss… slow roasted for 12 hours until it falls apart on its own.

I’ve seen folks try to rush things like this, and it doesn’t end well.

These are the kind you sit down for. Maybe loosen the belt a notch. Maybe stay a while longer than you planned.

Anyway, they’re here. I’d order one before someone else does.

Training a bunch of young bucks round here to master the trade!

But, the tall kid on the grill is quite the daydreamer… I caught him zoning out a few times. He’ll catch on.. I hope.
