For some reason, Monk took a shine to the Kansas City beef rib on the menu, so that was ordered as well, along with an appetizer of smoked wings. We obviously were going with a combo platter, but wanted even more variety beyond that. Speedy : Our order here was actually a pretty difficult choice.

Monk : Mac’s is a “biker bar” and while it does attract a biker crowd, there’s nothing there that would make your average yuppie squirm or feel uncomfortable. In fact, our guest for the evening, Sus, was trying to convince us to skip Mac’s in favor of the Smokehouse. In fact, I don’t think either of us had been since Midwood Smokehouse opened up.
When I first moved to Charlotte, Monk and I used to be pretty regular visitors to Mac’s, but truth be told, that was partly due to a lack of better options than anything else. Speedy : Our next visit was the Charlotte staple, Mac’s Speed Shop.
