SeaWorld in Orlando and its sister park, Busch Gardens in Tampa, are hosting Bands, Brew and BBQ now through the weekend of March 5th. Each Saturday, SeaWorld hosts a musical act and offers a wide array of BBQ and other tasty dishes from vendors like Smokey Bones, Four Rivers Smokehouse and Texas Cattle Company beef brisket charcoal grill plenty of beer. Your best bet is the $20 tasting card, which lets you choose 12 specialty brews to sample from the beer garden. The portions are supposed to be three ounces; they filled up my cup to the rim every time, so my husband and I easily shared our tastings.
For the customer that can't decide, the sampler platter is a good choice, but be careful. There is enough food for two, (or one hungry journalist.) The sampler platter has 3 pork ribs, one chicken quarter, bbq brisket, and pork shoulder. Choice of 2 small sides and bread is also included.
We selected several items off of the dinner menu, which includes an option to build your own plate based on a handful meat selections- hot links (spicy sausage), pulled pork, pulled chicken, bbq brisket and rib tips. Prices for the plates range in price from $9.75 for one choice of meat, up to $15.75 for four.
If what you drink with your meal is as important as the meal itself, you'll love Maker's Mark Bourbon House and Lounge. The lounge features a 57' long bar that is topped with wood and outlined in marble. Soft lighting is slow cooker bbq brisket added to create the perfect atmosphere. The S. Fourth Street location was the very first Maker's Mark Bourbon House and Lounge. The lounge offers over 60 distilled Kentucky bourbons and has a menu list that ranges from seafood and steak to freshly tossed salads.
Super "trash" bowl - When cooking, set a bowl next to your prep bbq beef crock pot. This way, you could easily throw in veggie peel or unwanted broccoli stalks into the bowl and make one single trip to the trash bin. It's surprising how much time we spend walking back and forth to throw things out.
