Review: Big South brings proper soul food to SLC
A new Sugar House eatery is serving up a cuisine that manifests comfort and familiarity — despite its rarity in Utah. Driving the news: You must — I repeat, must — pick up dinner at Big South soul food for a taste of home that transcends geography. The vibe: The brick-and-mortar location at 900 East and 2100 South has a shifting menu of treats from Big South's popular food truck, like oxtail, meat loaf, catfish, collard greens, cornbread and yams. There's a bit of seating, but most customers were ordering takeout when I visited. Best bites: Every single dish my family tried was fantastic, but we each had a different favorite. Mine was the (perfect) catfish, my husband loved the BBQ ribs, and my kid singled out the yams. 💭 My thought bubble: It's like all of my memories from Thanksgiving, Sunday dinners and the Fourth of July fused into a bite.
