PBR Pulled Pork at PBR Rock Bar
C+
You can't
really tell from this picture, but this is a mountain of a sandwich. It's just
huge. And the amount of tender, juicy pulled piggy in this thing is obscene.
Couldn't eat half of it. Half. PBR Rock Bar is smack in the middle of the
Strip, a gigantic, somewhat cheesy themed restaurant that sucks in tourists
whether they're rodeo fans or not. It's a big food machine. But what most
people don't know is that it's the home of what is probably the best barbecue
on the Las Vegas Strip, including some smoky brisket and some righteous ribs.
This sweet, supple pork is right up there, too. The problems here are the
dried-out burger bun, the mostly bland, creamy coleslaw, and the portions: some
more of that slaw, if it had more crunch and flavor, would help moisten the bun
and cut through the richness of all that sweet meat. When you order a barbecue
sandwich, you're not supposed to want to scrap the bun and topping and only eat
the barbecue.
