Tbh, I'm not sure there's any food in the Tri Cities that I'm willing to give up four hours for. If Delta Blues would fix their thoroughly mediocre mac and cheese, that would be close to it...

Ryan4VT 4,554 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 8 hours ago, BigWinners said: Same. But if im somewhere and the options are BWW and Hooters, unless I'm going to watch a UFC event or some other major sporting event, id rather order Hooters to go. how long is the drive from Richlands to JC anyway? It's like an hour, hour fifteen from here. I live in Bristol lol. It takes like 25 min to get to JC. Still ain't driving out there for Hooters lol.

redtiger 1,740 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 Had BWW in Pikeville Friday, not our first choice but everywhere had a wait time and it was 12:30 (I eat lunch at work by 11 so I was starving). Im not a huge fan of their food but I love their Mango Habanero sauce. The wife loves Hooters, weve drove an hour and a half one way to get wings and burgers on more than one occasion. My favorite wing sauce overall? I make a General Tsos sauce at home and dial up the heat a few notches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 East Coast Wings (Kingsport, JC) is where it's at. Best wings I have ever had. Their sauces are unique (Washington red apple sauce is so yummy and sweet). And there's plenty of meat in the boneless wings. I like BWW, but I usually don't get wings from there. I get the cheese curd bacon burger. It is amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widespread_Panic 197 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 Wing Stop in Kingsport is really good too. I think it's better than Buffalo Wild Wings but it is on the pricier side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigrhsfan 884 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 I am a Hooters wings man myself especially if I'm out on the bike riding down in the Tri-Cities area. I always stop by and get some wings and curly fries and a cold beverage. I like my wings hot, but not 3 mile island hot ! Got those once and between my eyes watering and snot running out my nose I couldn't enjoy them as much as I would have liked ! But I do like my wings more hot than mild.

However indifferent I am about wings, I'm that enthused about barbeque. It's hard to beat a great pulled pork sandwich or ribs. At this point in my life, id rather have barbeque over just about any other food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an overweight guy (I'm around 240 now at 6'4 but in HS I was over 300), I've somehow always managed excellent blood pressure. Even after I started smoking, it always hovers around 120/70. But both my parents have blood pressure issues so I'm positive the older I get, the more aware of my food intake I'll have to be.

Is the pulled pork their speciality or is it ribs? Its not really pulled pork though. They shave the pork after its smoked instead of pulling it. The beans are great as well. I want to try the blue cheese appetizer sometime but Im typically the only person thats a fan of blue cheese in my family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
