Since we are on the subject of food, let me introduce you to the sandwich from heaven otherwise known as the Southern Pulled Pork sandwich from 4Rivers Smokehouse. In Scotland, its a bit difficult to get a good man sized smoked meat sandwich, so I didn't waste time heading off to the 4R. I was craving some comfort food after a long flight and went a bit crazy with the amount I ordered.
Everything on the menu looked good and we finally settled for a bit of everything: smokehouse prime ribs, southern pulled pork sandwich and the messy pig, pulled pork with slaw, jalapeƱo, pickles and smothered with 4R sauce. For sides we selected the sweet potato mash (loved it), smoked jalapeƱos (a bit meh), french fries (perfect), corn on the cob (sweet and tender) and a huge blueberry cupcake.
The eating area is an open patio with old fashioned fans lazily going round, and since the portions are so huge, there are take away containers kept on the side in which you can pack and dash if need be. Am quite proud to admit that we managed to clean our plates. I won't lie, it was an effort resulting in a most ungracious waddle back to our car. But it was worth it.
My verdict, if you want a burger, go for Five Guys, but if its man sandwiches you crave, especially a melt in the mouth pork one, then it doesn't get better than 4 Rivers.
