Get all your favorite savory cravings at this small town eatery! Nick's features both BBQ and catfish for a best-of-both-worlds' dining experience. The main dishes are delicious but wait till you see what's for dessert. Let's try not to drool as we scroll through their menu today:
Although it's not in the heart of Arkansas' BBQ capital, Nick's Bar-B-Q and Catfish is a nearby front-runner.
And that's only half the menu! The eatery resides about 40 miles east of Little Rock in the small town of Carlisle. The eatery features slow-cooked meats and St. Louis-styled ribs but that's not the only thing we're focused on today.
The eatery has stayed true to its southern roots from A to D (in this case appetizers to desserts).
Proclaimed "World Famous since 1972," Nick's still features the same and delectable family recipes. Everything here is made in-house from the BBQ sauce, fried green tomatoes, slow-cooked meats, fried catfish, and pecan pie.
These heaping servings are any carnivore's dream come true.
The surf and turf combos are the best way to get a full dining experience at Nick's. However, if you're craving one more than the other, the dinners are further broken down into BBQ, chicken, shrimp, and catfish.
The menu doesn't stop at the smoker or fryer since Nick's also features some savory burgers, too!
These hefty burgers are 1/2-lb of char-grilled patty topped with pulled pork BBQ, BBQ sauce, coleslaw, cheese, and a fried green tomato. It's a whole picnic fitted between two buns! You can also make-your-own if you'd prefer a more traditional meat-and-veg spread.
Dessert lives up to Arkansas' tradition as well as any Arkansans' taste buds.
Grandma's Homemade Pecan Pie and the Homemade Fried Pies have stayed the same recipes for generations. The fried pies are buttery and flaky with mouthwatering fillings like apple, peach, coconut, or chocolate. All are made daily and are best served with a scoop of ice cream, of course.
Nick's Bar-B-Q and Catfish also offers curbside services for convenience and social distancing.
Any of your favorites, from burgers to juicy ribs, can be ordered to go. Curbside is an easy way to keep the convenience of a drive-thru while still being able to support a local business!
This Arkansas eatery is sure to give your family a delicious dining experience.
