Took a road trip today and ended up in Warm Springs. In an old white house right off of the square is Mac's. I walked in and was told to have a seat wherever I liked. It being a beautiful day, I opted to sit on the glassed in front porch. It was obvious from the conversations around me that this place is a local favorite. Young families, middle aged bikers, and an elderly WW2 vet and his wife were among the patrons at Mac's. I ordered the regular pork plate which comes with a generous helping of chopped, nearly fat-free meat, cole slaw, brunswick stew, a bag of Lay's chips, two slices of bread, and two slices of pickle. The meat was delicious. The cole slaw was really good. The stew was good as well, though I have had better.
They offered me mild, medium, or hot sauce, and I asked for hot, thinking it would be the typical mustard based barbeque sauce typical of this region. What came out of the bottle was more like a fiery chipotle sauce than barbeque sauce. After a second take, I squirted it all over the meat and dug in. I was pleasantly surprised. This was good. Not too hot, but it left that nice warmth in my mouth. And tasty to boot! It was a nice compliment to the smokiness of the meat.
