Ribs, brisket, pulled pork….gators?
Bonez Brothers BBQ, a catering company and farmers market regular, will bring its alligator-laden menu to the masses in a few weeks when the company opens its first brick-and-mortar in Quincy, a take-out only location launching in a former Papa John’s pizzeria. Owner Todd Noon told Boston.com that many of Bonez’s market favorites will be available — brisket cooked for 19 hours, ribs cooked for 12, and plenty of gator delicacies like sausages, fritters, and tails. The shop will also serve fan favorite Love in a Cup: a 13-layer “sundae” made with pulled pork, baked beans, coleslaw, and collard greens.
Also notable: Noon’s deep-fried key lime cheesecake. The decadent dessert is made by scooping up balls of chilled cheesecake and then freeze blasting them on a sheet pan. The scoops are then rolled in graham cracker crumbs, brushed with an egg wash, rolled into cornflakes, and deep fried. A key lime drizzle serves as the proverbial icing on the cake.
Noon, who spends his winters in Florida, isn’t a stranger to the catering business (or the gator business, for that matter). Prior to launching Bonez Brothers BBQ, Noon served as a chef and dietary director in Florida before jumping into competitive barbecuing. He’s also an experienced gator hunter; some of his taxidermied alligators will be on display at the new shop.
When Bonez Brothers BBQ opens in Quincy — Noon said it should debut mid-September — it will operate on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 11 a.m. until 9:30 p.m., or when the meat runs out. Once the farmers markets close for the season, Noon anticipates the shop opening five to six days a week — “but never on Sundays,” he said.
Until then, grab a couple gator links from Bonez Brothers BBQ at its usual haunts: the Quincy Farmers Market on Fridays, and the Attleboro Farmers Market on Saturdays and join us at their opening day in September to devour the details of some gator and cheesecake!
