Pig In The Garden Lunch

My neighbor called earlier and asked me to ride along as she had a few errands to get done. So I did. Always fun to spend time with her. We both had errands to take care of. I had a few groceries to pick up. And she had crafting supplies to get she had ordered ahead of time. On the way home we stopped at a favorite BBQ restaurant I have not visited in awhile. It is called Jim 'N Nick's BBQ. Their menu has it all. Many will buy large orders for tailgating parties from here. She had the salad called Pig in the Garden. Pulled pork on top of a great salad. It had lettuce, bacon, cheddar cheese, cucumbers, tomatoes, almonds, homemade croutons, and topped with smoked pork. Too much for me of course. I got a regular salad with the homemade croutons. So good. Just enough although it will probably be lunch and dinner for me. Hope your Friday has been a good one. Photo is mine.

I'm glad you got to go out, get some errand done, and visit with your friend at the same time. It is good to have that quality time. I would not have been to eat that either. I would have eaten the lettuce, bacon, cheddar cheese, cucumbers, tomatoes, and almonds, and taken the pulled pork home.

It was a very warm day but I enjoyed the time out. The pulled pork was too much but she enjoyed.

It was huge for her, she didn't finish it either. Mine was without the meat. The BBQ is delicious.

@LadyDuck I have seen many eat the entire salad. It could be shared by two people.

The salad looks so good. I like getting tubs of BBQ from places to use in different meals.

Yes she enjoyed hers. I tasted the meat and it was delicious. They also have great homemade desserts but I am always too full to have them. Maybe I could order just dessert next time.

That Pig in the Garden sounds woot-tootin' delicious. I'd go for that in a flash. Our local BBQ spot, which for us has the best, is a place called Beast Craft. I should see if they have something similar, although I always opt for the smoked brisket.

Interesting, never saw pork on a salad, but I'm not against it, they are both delicious. I will try anything once.

We are going out to dinner with friends tonight so I need to remember to eat light today. I'm always battling to clean up what's offered.
