Albert G's Barbeque Opening Blue Dome Location

[custosnox]

You must not be aware that "chew" as a euphemism for barbeque started as an epithet toward our colored brethren or you wouldn't use it.  It stems from making fun of their dialect: "I gots to get me some babachew".

One of two things, it makes you look like either a racist or a hillbilly who really knows nothing about real barbeque.

And yes Albert G's is the "stuff".  Chuck does a great job.  (See I can name-drop too  )

Blake has som really interesting ideas for Back Alley (had to make a name-drop too, I felt left out.).  Seriously though, you should walk by sometime and look in the window.  Can't see a whole lot of what's going on, but it's enought to make you scratch your head.

Us Southies will go to great distances for good chew! Too bad there's so many bothersome drunks hanging around downtown.....

Glad you have so much against downtown.  Despite it doing so well, I don't have to worry about ever running into you down there.

In addition to the two new BBQ places, what is the restaurant going in the old Olson-Coffey Architects space at the SW corner of 3rd & Elgin?  They have been working in there for the past couple months.

It's a Michael Sager project so take that for what it's worth.

^Wine Bar, it should be ready to start pulling corks about the same time as people are moving into First Street Lofts.

Yeah, that.

They are working on a new label for the district. I like "The Boozeria". Just more sales cannibalizing each other. Does anybody understand the meaning of demographics?

I also hear the wine bar will be called "The Penguins Port"....not to be name dropping.

What are demographics? Help me. Also, who's working on a new label for the district?

Don't worry about his posts.  They mean very little to nothing.

Going from zero to four BBQ joints downtown is quite a change.  I like BBQ, but this could be a combined version of Restaurant Wars and Survivor.

Any indication on what part of downtown RibCrib is looking at?  I'm honestly shocked they weren't the first to move in downtown and that it didn't happen some years ago.  I had some RibCrib from the mobile kitchen by the BOK Center yesterday, and it really is good barbeque.  Nothing special, but just good barbeque.  Albert G's is still my favorite in Oklahoma though.  Oklahoma Joe's should be special too since its world famous and has won numerous awards from the Kansas City Barbeque organization.

First and Detroit in the building the MET occupies. The MET is moving into the Brady.

They'll start calling it the BBQ District..

Careful, one of our more literal members will reprimand us for calling it that with only four examples to draw from.  Sort of like the Deco District.
