One of the best briskets I've had! |
The kind of gatherings I love are
MEATings. Speaking about meats, I've always wanted to visit smokehouses in
Southern USA. But for now, we got some pretty rad smokehouse joints in Sydney
where I can satisfy my BBQ meat cravings. The newly opened Bovine and Swine Barbecue Co has joined the Sydney Barbecue
smokehouse scene with the likes of Papi Chulo, Black Betty BBQ, LP's Quality Meats
and Vic's Meat Market.
They are located on Enmore Rd just a few
doors down from Enmore Theatre. This American Barbecue restaurant is run by the
splendido trio team Wes, my
buddy Anton (both ex Vic's Meat) and Tim. The interior space is minimal with communal
seating. Inspite of it being packed on its official opening day, the vibe was
pretty laid back. Their massive smoker is custom built and designed by the
Bovine and Swine team (mainly by Wes). Meats are cooked low and slow, which
results in smokey, flavoursome and tender protein. The menu is small and it
includes meats like brisket, pork, chicken, pork ribs and beef short ribs.
You can customise your plate! Each meat
is $9 per 100grams and you can
choose from a range of sides like pickles, slaw, mac & cheese etc.
We decided to get a meat plate for two ($60), which consisted of brisket, chopped pork
and pork ribs. It came with 3 sides.
The brisket
was ridiculously tender and fatty. Yes, it was very smokey with amazing burnt ends packed with flavour elevated by the spice rub.
The chopped
pork was smokey too with a lot of fatty bits but with lighter flavour
compared to the brisket.
The tender pork ribs is Kansas-style. It was sweet with peppery hints from the
dry rub.

Mac & cheese |
The pickles
were perfect with a nice balance of sweet and sour taste. The slaw was good too
but it was the mac & cheese that
won my heart. It's not your usual mac & cheese. The cheese sauce was creamier
but damn it was addictive.
The next time you plan a meat-up with
family and friends around Enmore, make sure to check out the awesome folks at
Bovine and Swine Co. I will be back to try their beef short ribs!
