“Solid Kittery BBQ with great sauce, though the brisket ran dry.”

Tried Ore Nell's on Badgers Island in Kittery with the little guy along for the ride. The brisket had good flavor but was on the dry side and needed the (excellent, spicy) sauce, while the St. Louis ribs edged it out with nice tenderness. The jalapeno cheddar sausage was the high point with real kick and a good snap, even if the cheese was scarce.

📍 Ore Nell's has a second location in Biddeford, ME — this review is the Kittery shop on Badgers Island.
