When it comes to BBQ and Beer... Be Defiant!


My wife and I have been going to Defiant Brewery for years. We were lucky enough to be there for their debut of smoked/BBQ wings many many years ago. Their menu has grown and it is just as good, as when they first "toyed" with the idea. We went out Friday Feb. 6, 2015 and were NOT disappointed :-)

Remember when I said it isn't the look of the place or the flatware. Well, this is no frills great BBQ.

This is the Ample Sampler and is a great meal for 2, or a snack for 3.



Top row, left to right:

Wings,brisket,ribs and pulled pork. They use a dry rub which is very tasty and needs NO help. In case you like it saucy, they give you squeeze bottles: 1 hot sauce and one BBQ sauce. If you do not have teeth, no worries, you don't need any. All the meat is moist and just melts in your mouth. The obligatory roll of paper towels sits in front of you. (No respecting BBQ would give you anything more) :-)

Bottom row, left to right:

Corn Bread and pickles are included, choice of 3 sides: we got the mac and cheese, brisket chili and coleslaw. All great choices. The chili is tasty and has some good heat to it.




The knife isn't even necessary, the brisket, fell apart when touched by the fork :-)
We have several places in Rockland that "claim" to be smokehouses. If you ask me, they pale in comparison to Defiant's menu. And what better way to enjoy good BBQ then to wash it down with a good brew, of which they have many..
Please don't just take my word for it , go and give this place a try, you won't be disappointed. :-)

Buon Appetito
