Slows BBQ (Detorit, MI)

Restaurant review of Slows BBQ in Detroit Michigan. An amazing BBQ restaurant that offers a variety of international beers!

Best BBQ food I have ever had.  Hands down. 

Best Beer menu in Michigan.  Great place for vegetarians too! 

I love this place and should be a walking advertisement because I am constantly talking about it.  They have a huge menu and an excellent beer selection to match it.  You can order great international microbrews on draft.  Just about any beer that you love and can only find at Beverage Warehouse, it will be here. 

The inside is trendy and looks like they transplanted it from New York.  With a super cool wooden door (that you might miss) and a modern wood interior, it is the onyl hipster place on the block.  Like most finds in Detroit, Slow’s is tucked away on Michigan Ave close to some pretty run-down looking store fronts.  Don’t be turned off by its location.  Everything is incredible!  

I eat:

Any of the sandwiches (the vegan BBQ is JUST as good as every other sandwich)
The sides are great.  I love the waffle fries and the mac and cheese.  The sweet mashed potatoes are also really good.  For an appetizer, I would go with the fried okra fritters.  I have never had them anywhere else and they come with a spicy fun sauce that gives them a great zip!  
They have a small outdoor seating area and beware of smokers indoors.  There is a great bar and the service is a bit ‘Detroit punk anti-culture culture’ if you know what I mean.  Always busy and crowded.  They are open late so I would plan on waiting and grabbing a drink at the bar. 

If you think for a second that Detroit is lacking, go to Slow’s and think again.
