From our fall issue cover story on the best sandwi From our fall issue cover story on the best sandwiches in the area… “The highlight of a lip-smacking menu at @uneannee brewery — for us, anyway — is the Cave Monster sandwich, as it is one seriously unique and delicious creation. A mountain of pulled pork is topped by two crispy slabs of sliced brisket (grilled for a few minutes to crisp things up a bit) and a melty tandem of habanero jack and mozzarella and then finished off with a muffuletta-giardinera mix and crispy onion jalapeño crisps. Talk about a perfect balance of flavors. Sweet with a little crunchy kick. And filling. So come hungry. And save room for a few pints of their rotating 24 craft beers on draft.” Read more at therealparkridge.com #therealparkridge #craftbeer #BBQ #eatlocal #sandwiches
