The enticing smell of smoked meats in
the air with some Busta Rhymes playing in the background was the start of an
amazing Saturday afternoon. I really enjoyed my recent visit at a new joint in
Bondi called Two and Twelve. They're
a smokehouse and grill restaurant located on Curlewis Street.
Two and Twelve has an industrial fit out
with a fresh urban vibe. They specialise in deli-style sandwiches, Cajun
cuisine and Southern-style smoked meats cooked low and slow. A range of meats
like beef brisket, snags, pork ribs, chicken and pork belly are available.
We started with some complimentary pork crackling with gochujang mayo. The
strands of crackling were perfect with tasty fatty bits! The touch of the smoky
chilli salt and gochujang mayo for dipping was highly addictive!

| Milk buns with pepper jack butter |
Then the platter of smoked BBQ meats ($84) came out and it was game on! It
consisted of generous amounts of beef brisket, pork ribs, smoked chicken, and Louisiana
boudin. It also came with pickles, milk buns, pepper jack butter, bourbon bbq
jus and other condiments.

| Smoked beef brisket |
The brisket
was ridiculously melt-in-your-mouth tender, fatty and smoky. It also had nice
crispy caramelised bits that added some sweetness to the brisket. It was my
favourite out of all the meats. I suggest pouring bourbon bbq jus on the
brisket for extra smokiness and kick.
 |
| Pork ribs |
The pork
ribs meat was so tender too that they easily fell off the bones. The bbq
sauce used for the ribs was tasty, tangy and sweet.
 |
| Smoked chicken |
The chicken
thighs and drumstick were succulent and smoky as well. I also really like that
they served some of the delicious stuffing!
 |
| Louisiana style boudin |
The Louisiana-style
smoked boudin sausage had a flaky-like textured filling. This super smoky
snag had a blend of duck, beef and pork.
We were so full after all of that.
Sadly, our bellies didn't have room for dessert anymore. So we'll just have to
return to try their ice cream sandwich right?! The awesome BBQ dishes with warm
Southern hospitality style service will keep any homeboy and homegirl coming
back for more! This fresh playa in the smoked bbq meats scene is definitely
blazin'!
