Town Square’s Pot Liquor drops the CAS from its name. The barbecue restaurant now goes by Pot Liquor Smokehouse Barbecue, still serving its Southern style of cuisine. Owners Flip Arbelaez and Doug Bell claim the name is a better reflection of things barbecue, including the peach, mesquite and cherry woods used to smoke the brisket for up to 12 hours and the smoker named Big Hank.
"Using the word smokehouse in restaurant branding has become more common because people are more knowledgeable about what makes barbecue great," owner and executive chef Bell says in a press statement. "If we add barbecue to our name, it ties it all together and reinforces what’s on the menu."
New menu items include pulled pork nachos, spare riblets, crab fritters and cheddar grits and veggies. On the revamped lunch menu, find a hot link hoagie, beef and cheddar and a smoked turkey club wrap. Groups of eight may want to order the combination platter called A Month of Sundays with one pound of hot links, one pound of pulled pork, one pound of beef brisket, one whole smoked chicken, a full rack of baby back ribs, a full rack of spare ribs, cornbread with honey butter and a choice of four side dishes.
The updated happy hour menu every Monday through Friday from 3 to 6 p.m. features 11 food items for $5 each including chili cheese fries, hot barbecue fingers and fries, bacon burger sliders with cheddar and onions, barbecue chicken salad sliders and more. Also find $2 PBR and Shandy pints, 50 percent off all other draft beers, and well drinks and house wines for $4 and specialty cocktails for 25 percent off.
Pot Liquor also features a menu of whiskeys that include Pappy Van Winkle 15, offered at $150 for a 1.5 ounce pour, Pappy Van Winkle 20 priced at $200 for a 1.5 ounce pour, and Orphan Barrel "Lost Prophet" for $110 for a 1.5 ounce pour.
