”Behind the rough surface serves authentic and flavorful lunch and brunch of a kind we really are not spoiled with. The yummy, melting tender pieces of meat we are eating, this motivates well the extra travel time required to get to the ‘dieseldalen’,” wrote Krogkommissionen in the justification for the Gulddrake in the hotel that we awarded the Brisket & Friends in January 2018.
the Kitchen has also been appointed to 2017, the year’s best street food.
Louis Åström and Niklas Elshazly expanded. The old car wash in Englewood, where the tiny förstlingskrogen opened in the spring of 2016, has now been expanded with a much larger and centrally positioned dining room. Brisket & Friends City, a bbq lounge, downstairs at Upplandsgatan 7, next to Norra Bantorget, has the capacity for ninety guests, according to the drop-in principle.

the Food is ordered at the cashier and served oceremoniöst on the tiles with the just paper. Sidorätterna come in small cardboard boxes. The beer (is it and the selection is hip and hand) are picked up in the bar.
for the classy industrilampor, bare brick walls and dark green wood creates a cosy (but noisy) atmosphere. The audience is closest to the shocking homogeneous a regular Friday night after work; 80% of guys in their 30s who lassar into the jaw.
the Menu accommodates the same sydstatsspecialiteter who have received innerstadsbor make a pilgrimage to the oinsmickrande the industrial park in Englewood.
It urmöra the meat is, of course, the trump card. Here are signaturrätten brisket, that is to say, the beef brisket (65 sek/hg), who spent sixteen hours in a bbq smoke, as välrökt pork (55 kr/hg), pulled pork (55 kr/hg) made with carefully smoked neck and ribs, and moreover, the cocky jalapeño/cheddar sausages (65/35 kr). Many are betting on paketmenyn Tablebreaker (500 sek for 2 persons, 950 kr for 4).
in itself, is worth a very long detour for incorrigible karnivorer, who do not want to spend a half or full thousand of hängmörade porterstekar or wagyubitar in värstingklassen. You will find hardly bbq-menus in Sweden that can compare with the cooking of these meat.
There are several different sauces to choose from. Photo: Krogkommissionen
The vegetarians who want to hang on köttätarkompisarna has, unfortunately, not a lot to choose from. Either stringy jackfrukt or – best choice – smoked portabellosvampar. They don’t look so festive at pappersunderlaget but has a nice firm consistency and a deep, spicy, smokiness.
given the apparently not quite the same love as the animal proteins. To make a replaced classic mac n’cheese that is not – as here –been dissolved, and stickiness requires no Bocuse d’or-knowledge. The house coleslaw (25/45 kr) would win a lot more acid and less of the current karaktärslösa lenheten. To include a few bland slices of location of hotel (!) for hot food is never ever a good idea – despite the fact that it is very popular with processed Wonder Bread of american bbq restaurants.

But in the cute bowls of cardboard are treated at the same time other excellent accessories. Here is for example an excellent pico de gallo (35/65 kr) – when does this become so versatile tomathack with onion, lime and coriander more common on the Swedish taverns? It is also unusually successful cornbread-bread with good texture (£25) as well as roasted majsröra with röksötig taste (35/65 kr).
a couple of well-balanced bbq sauces, in particular, the who is reported to have roots in Kansas, and a senapstät potato salad Texas style (25/45 kr) who is also above average. At least as successful is also the house ingefärsglaze, perfect for pork. Direct sublime is the chef’s candied jalapenos (15 sek) – thin planed rings of the green pepparfrukten as picklats in both supersyrlig and super cute team. Chili cut as a nyslipad stiletto by the desires of the flesh muskliga smokiness. A sensation.

the House pekannötpaj (65 kr) is ok, but should not be any top seller. The main courses saturating also the difficult svultne.
Sidorätterna is Brisket & Friends achilles heel, one expects a bit more when you sit down in a real kroglokal than when the man shovels in itself, lunch in an industrial area.
we would also like clearer information on the origin of the meat. To have a large vegetarian selection may not be necessary for a pure köttkrog, but for a flexitarian should like to add the week köttranson right here is enough in many cases, the clear answer if it was oh so good the meat comes from.
This can be a two child family, eating out dundermätt for around 800 dollars, and the young bunch with thin wallets can make a fun evening. Institutions that Flippin’ Burgers, and pizza places like 800 degrees and Omnipollos hat has got a worthy contender.
