Just went to a place called Smokey Bones. They do a great Job on Ribs, But forget their Briscuts. They look and taste like "Roast Beef AuJus" I made a Briscut over the 4th of July weekend party and what was not eaten. I froze. When I want some briscut, I just nuke and it is 10 times better than Smokey Bones. IMHO Later CBB in PA

    Sounds like they cooked it with no spices. Maybe just salt and pepper. And they cooked ot covered in an oven. Then served it with its own juices. Maybe it wasnt brisket. Brisket has its own taste. Maybe it was chuck. That would taste more like a roast beef than brisket.
    BTW where is it? It sounds very familiar. I know I've seen the road signs but dont remember where it is.

        They were in Memphis for a year or two but couldn't make it down here. I found the food boring and the place very loud with TVs in every corner.

          Statement on Smokey Bones
          Saturday, May 5, 2007

          Darden Restaurants, Inc. today announced the closure of 56 Smokey Bones Barbeque & Grill and two Rocky River Grillhouse restaurants. Darden will offer the remaining 73 Smokey Bones restaurants for sale – all located in the eastern half of the United States.

          The action comes as part of an overall effort by the company to better position Darden for future growth. Smokey Bones has lagged the performance of Darden’s other brands as the barbecue concept’s core guests chose to dine at Smokey Bones with less frequency.

          The company had been testing the possibility of converting some units to a new format called Rocky River Grillhouse. That longer-term test featuring fire-grilled foods was predicated on Smokey Bones’ ability to stabilize its business. Long-term performance declines, however, continued and recently accelerated, making that test not viable.


          A list of the closed restaurants is available here.

            What is a "Briscut"? Is that a new cracker from Nabisco?
