Description:

• Barbecue and blues music? If you're at the Blu Pig, you got it. Featuring soulful southern food and the crooning tunes of Bessie Smith and the like, this jiving place can really hop on weekend nights. Dive into hearty entrees like The Lucille, fresh Catfish Filet blackened with cajun spices and finished with an apple chutney, or Blu's Big Boy--a half pound of Hickory Smoked Andouille Sausage topped with sautéed onions and bell peppers. A variety of salads such as Caesar, Chicken Cobb, Brisket, and Pulled Pork can follow starters like Firecracker Peel and Eat Shrimp, Atomic Wings, Hush Puppies, and Deep Fried Catfish Strips. Sandwiches, sides, tasty desserts, and a kids' menu that will appeal to very picky young eaters round out the menu. The Blu Pig also thoughtfully offers BBQ to go, patio seating, and a convenient Main Street location.
