Not sure if this is the right forum, or if y'all even care, but I have eaten at Shady Oak BBQ up in Plano (Parker and 75) twice now, and having given it two tries, I can now say without a doubt that it truly sucks.
First time I got the two meat platter w/ brisket & sausage. Sausage was all fat and cereal, no firmness at all. Had the same consistency as a boiled hot-dog. The brisket wasn't disgusting, but was nothing to write home about.
Went back and got the pork ribs (their "specialty"). The ribs were caked with this gummy red "sauce" that tasted like it belonged on spaghetti. They were fall-off-the-bone tender and good, meaty ribs, but that sauce made them taste like they should have been served at Maggianos.
Cole slaw was good. Bread was great. But I have to pass by a Sonny Brian's to get to Shady Oak, so I will not go back.
Hope this saves y'all some money. :?
