Saturday dinner meal, nine people in our family party.
For appetizers we ordered two full Pulled Pork Nachos. Most of the group really enjoyed the nachos; however, I felt the flavors were somewhat muted. The beer cheese doesn’t taste like beer cheese, instead it had more of an American cheese taste in my opinion. The chips in the nacho are good, best approximation of taste and texture would be a very lightly salted “Potato Skins” (the brand of chip) chip. The amount of nachos, particularly the amount of toppings, makes this appetizer a great purchase.
For entrees we got eight burgers and a half rack of ribs. The ribs were terrific, great amount of meat and amazing taste and texture. The burgers are very large, not a chance of leaving hungry. A few, to include me, got Rodeo Burger; it is very filling; it is heaped with great flavor profiles. Unfortunately it all sort of becomes a singular meat flavor, not undesirable in the least… just a heads up. My wife got the Bacon Blue BBQ burger, Shawnee Mound hit a home run with this one; they use high quality bleu cheese and bacon; the flavors make sure you know it. Finally, the fries that come with the burgers… the fries are seriously great. There’s just something about them that gets you reaching for one more and one more…
Lastly we ordered the horseradish coleslaw out of plain curiosity having never seen such a thing and it is delicious. Of course a prerequisite to finding it delicious is really liking the taste of fresh ground horseradish. I suspect the horseradish is from a local producer having bought some from the local store. If you like fresh ground horseradish, I am not talking about the mayonnaise like mass produced store brand so-called horseradish, pick some up for four bucks and a lot up for ten bucks.
All told we got nine entrees, two full sized appetizers, three small sides, one large side (needed to grab a large container of that coleslaw for later, it’s that good), and two sodas. The bill was only around 205 (about 23 a person), really a decent price for so much food for our large group.
Final note and it is an important one – unlike nearly every other restaurant, Shawnee Mound BBQ does not automatically add such and such percent gratuity for large parties (I asked our server, she said they never add a gratuity), so please don’t forget to tip when you visit as you feel is appropriate. I asked if there was a gratuity added before paying, and then ensured the server’s tremendous service was compensated with a proper tip (above 20% since she had a massive table sprung upon her and she kept up, somehow).
Our waitresses i believe the one and only did an awesome job and stayed grounded as she started getting busy. Thank you!
Shawnee Mound BBQ in Clinton is SO good! The BBQ is full of flavor with great cuts of meat, and to top it off, they also serve wood-fired pizza. The toppings and creative combinations are ones I never would have thought of, but after trying them, they’ve quickly become my favorites.
I will say, it was a little hot inside (maybe from the BBQ or the lack of A/C), but honestly, the food and service more than made up for it. This is definitely a spot you’ll want to try for yourself—you won’t be disappointed!
