Though first timers to Bayside's very own barbecue need look no further than the BBQ brawler sandwich, (i.e., brisket, pork, chicken, bacon, onion rings, cheese, and cole slaw all served together on a hero.)
Some other Patch favorites include the hickory smoked wings, Double Cut BLT, and Diablo Cheese Steak sandwich (grilled roast beef, cheddar, muenster, and hot peppers & hot sauce).
