ANOTHER FIASCO FOR DINNER...

It's Saturday night and we were getting ready to go to dinner....Tiffany says let's get BBQ tonite, in the past we have been to, Bono's BBQ and Bennet's BBQ, I have to say after living all over the south, I do know a bit about good BBQ, neither one of these places do, although its def not bad, just not real authentic BBQ. So tonite Tiffany says 'Let's try a different place..." I said OK , where, she says " Brothers BBQ", now mind you I am in no way racist, but when I heard about this place, I immediately thought, Yea Brothers BBQ, its gotta be some good BBQ! So I said , I am def in, lets go..... Well we should have known when we went in and had to wait in line to order our food, and the motif was motorcycles hanging from the ceiling that this was not the kind of place I had imagined! I'll let you get the picture of what I thought Brothers BBQ, was gonna be like.... OK so we both ordered the same thing, it was the half chicken special... half chicken and two sides 8.99 oh and it comes with a bun too... so here I am thinking , well how bad can this be.. as we were waiting for the food I was looking at the menu and I see half chicken 5.99 and sides are 1.49 each, so what the heck is the big deal about the special then? The bun maybe? After waiting patiently in an empty restaurant (That should have tipped us off on a Saturday night) the cashier brought our food over... Now let me start by saying we ordered two HALF CHICKEN DINNERS, for some reason she brought us what looked like two hens! IF these were chickens it must have come from the Gerber Farm in New Jersey.... the cole slaw wasn't shredded enough, they should have called that sliced cabbage, the fries had no taste and get this, its supposed to be a BBQ place, so one would think the bun would be like Texas toast or garlic bread, right? WRONG! It was a hamburger bun, plain and not even toasted, HELLO? What the heck is that all about??? Oh Well, we already paid and we were very hungry and its raining outside, how bad can this be, even though it looks weird and small, right? WRONG AGAIN Bucko! The chicken had no taste as did the fries and coleslaw as well, what to do? Try the 5 different BBQ sauces, which were all over the counter for sale... this was a new experience as well, I went to squeeze it on the chicken and it came out like water, and then we tried the others and guess what? They were all like water! We couldn't believe they actually sell this stuff at the counter to take home! Does anyone buy it? Well it was all we had, and hopefully water or no water, it would add some flavor to what turned out to be tasteless food, guess again, didn't help at all. So after ten mins went by, we were all done, and ready to go, but we had to clean our own table first! Yes they had garbage pails all set up like in McDonald's to clean up your own stuff...yes classy all the way here! Bottom line, if the Brother's aren't running the place, run away fast it ain't worth trying! Brothers BBQ in Denver...my rating out of ten, I give it a -5, and that is being kind! As usual, I welcome your thoughts.

Tiffany never recommended the flippin' place. YOU looked it up, and I said, "I have never had it. I always see people with bags, but it looks like fast food BBQ." By the way, I was in the bathroom for the past twenty minutes. My rating? I give it two flushes!
