As the sweet smell of barbecue hits your nose, your mouth waters until you are a greeted by a slab of baby back grilled to perfection. As you cut the rack, tender juicy pork falls off the bone and glazed honey-barbecue sauce oozes from its insides. Since your entire plate—er, cutting board—is covered in ribs, you reach over to your basket of crisp, flavorful, steak-cut truffle fries to add a bit of savor!
Forget plates and bowls, whether it’s Mac and Cheese balls or a slab of pork belly, guests at Hammerheads are served on thick wooden cutting boards! From chorizo to venison and elk meat and even veggie tacos, Hammerheads menu pleases all palates from meat lovers to the strictest vegan. Each side dish is served up with a dose of Southern comfort, from fried chicken and sweet potato waffles and tarragon heirloom potato salad.
As their website warns, the restaurant doesn’t take reservations and has limited seating. Arrive early to enjoy prime seating and catch a view of the game. Hammerheads serves up its gamey delicacies Mondays through Saturdays from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m.
