Ad for Wendy's BBQ is pretty funny...Now, about Wendy's selling BBQ, that's another story...

[SuburbSlicker]

So I had to post this. Wendy's is hocking a pulled pork sammich (following Arby's lead?) with three sauces.

The ad campaign is pretty clever and amusing -- dragging out some 80's familiar faces. bbq4merica.com (Couldn't somebody else have already registered that name?)

I guess I'll have to go at least try the sammie. But I'm not optimistic. Anyone else tried yet?

No but after a late night drinkfest I bet its pretty damn good.....

Was I supposed to recognize anyone in that commercial? I confess I had no clue.

Farking Arby's driving brisket prices up and now farking Wendy's is going to take all the pork butts. Unless their pork is not real pork .....

I'll continue to smoke my own pulled pork, thank you very much. I ain't eating no stinking cushion meat from Wendy's... that place is gross, anyway. At least the ones around here are.

"Pulled pork cheese fries" sounds like something I need to make .

Stone Cold Steve Austin (wrestler), Alfonso Ribeiro(Carlton from 'Fresh Prince of Bel Air), and Ralph Macchio (The Karate Kid).

I have to admit the commercial made me laugh, but I'll stick to my own BBQ.

Unless I want some ribs, then I have to wait for the McRib sandwich to return. :shock:

On a side note I have to admit the Arby's brisket sammich ain't to bad after a dozen beers or so

Stockpiling briskets at $1.99/lb (and remembering when they were 99 cents a lb)

I had lunch there the other day and couldn't resist trying the pulled pork cheese fries. I wont comment on the pork but i ordered the spicy sauce ( theyre selling spicy, sweet, and smokey) and i actually thought it was good. Id be willing to buy a bottle if they were selling it (they're not i asked). I personally cant stand sbr and consider this way better than that. The sauce reminded me of a local bbq joints sauce, wasnt glopy, nice suttle spice hint of smoke.

Homemade version of the bbq cheese fries would definitely be a winner.

I always wonder why in my small town that McDonalds is always jam packed and Wendy's next door to it has maybe 2 customers...I don't eat at either one...but I don't think I would chance on Wendy's cause everybody else must know something I don't!
