I read about Four Points BBQ on someone's Facebook page and was intrigued. I've been a "cellar dweller" lately, working hard to finish some things on hand. But today I took a little break and traveled to the next town over to get some take-out at a new restaurant called 4 Points BBQ in Winterport, Maine. And I took my camera because I am that geeky.
When I got inside it was unclear to me what to do to place my take-out order...should I go to the counter? Should I flag down a waitress? There wasn't a clear spot.
The decor of the restaurant is very low-key
and down home with 5 picnic tables inside. Fun.
Have no idea who the guy in blue is... |
The smell of the cooking food was so awesome. So I flagged down a waitress on her way to the drinks machine and asked where I should place a take-out order. Since I didn't really know what was what it was hard to decide. I decided to get two dinners with two different kinds of meat with cole slaw and beans, and a half-rack of ribs. Then I waited for my order near a cute older couple chowing down a BBQ sandwich and a half rack of ribs.
While I was waiting I asked the older couple what they thought. The lady smiled and said it was "very good." The man didn't stop eating for a couple of minutes (a good sign?) and then said, "As good as any ribs I've had."
My name was called and I was handed a bag with my food in styrofoam containers. I turned to leave and saw this:
I ran to my van and started on my way. But it was too hard to see to drive in so I pulled over on the side of the road. Finally I was able to drive home and my hubby and I sat down to eat. The BBQ beans were outstanding and so was the coleslaw. The meat was very good but I didn't know that I needed to order sauce separately. So we had the meat sauceless. I dipped mine in the delicious beans.
Four Points website isn't up and running yet, but they do have a Facebook page. In case you want to try it out, here's their menu for ordering ahead. Click the menus to enlarge -these are my rain-soaked copies that I scanned, not the restaurant's

You're killin' me here, Dixie. Guess it's time for breakfast now.
BBQ for breakfast is the BEST. ;-)
LOL, sorry Dixie, but that was really funny, "and saw this!!!"
Looks like a very interesting place and so relaxed, nice.
