At Sticky Fingers, we are unabashedly obsessed with barbecue. It might not be the fanciest food. It might not be the healthiest. And it's definitely not the tidiest. But that's just the way we like it. We like the messiness. The holy hell that's a lot of meatiness. The sauce running down chins. And yeah, the sticky fingers. We want you to enjoy it too. In all its glory. So, pull up a chair. Grab a napkin (or don't). Dig in. Get messy. And whatever you do, don't apologize when things get sticky.
