My friend and I was looking around for food after a round of disc golf at Pride's Creek…read more There isn't a lot to choose from in Petersburg and for some reason, searching Yelp only turns up 6 results. This BBQ joint does not show up in any of them so I found No. 423 by Google. First of all, this was a pleasant surprise because my buddy and I didn't have high hopes for it. The restaurant was very clean and the service was great. We started off with an appetizer and chose the onion straws with pulled pork and cheese. The pulled pork was ok and it was mixed with sauce and the onion straws were tasty. Nothing special though. I picked a combo plate with brisket and ribs and chose baked potato salad and cornbread salad. They were out of sweet potato casserole which I picked over cornbread salad. They upcharged for all of this though. They had a choices but brisket and ribs cost more and sides besides beans, slaw, and American potato salad cost more. The brisket was better than the ribs. I was surprised how good the brisket actually was. They got it down with the tenderness and good mix of fat. The ribs were big, meaty and wet but not as good as the brisket. They did give a good size portion for meat but the sides had small portions. I think I ate both sides in four bites. The most impressive thing about No. 423 though were their homemade sauces. Their homemade ranch was zesty. There was a creamy horseradish. The BBQ was a sweet ketchup base and then there was a housemade hot sauce. The hot sauce was a thicker Crystal and I liked mixing it with the BBQ sauce. Sweet tea was refreshingly sweet. Overall, a pretty good place to eat in Petersburg. The sauces are housemade and terrific. The brisket is better than average and the ribs are pretty good. The two things I hate though are so many things having upcharges on a combo plate and the portions of the sides being small. I would eat here again though.

I also got the bacon cheesy potatoes. I thought they were pretty good as well. The ribs were pretty good too. Not the best we ever had but pretty good. They offer them until they are out of them. The Mac and cheese is a light weight cheese. Pretty good. Nothing extraordinary. Service was 12/10. Super friendly, super fast.

The brisket did have a good flavor and was juicy however they need to do a better job removing the fat cap from the brisket. A third of my brisket was all fat. My sides were their house made sweet and spicy pickle jar that were fantastic. My other side was the Mac and Cheese. This was another disappointing item. Good overall taste but very dried out. Not very cheese. They definitely need to find a better recipe for their Mac and cheese.

The selection is immense. They have all manners of sausage. They have all manners of beef. They have all manners of chicken. They will even custom butcher livestock you bring it to them, for a nominal fee. Merkley's is also a throwback for grocery shopping. It's not just going to the mega mart and picking up random bits on styrofoam trays, covered in cellophane. You can talk to the butcher, ask for recommendations and opinions. They'll gladly tell you all you need to know. First, go to Walmart. Buy the biggest cooler you can fit in your car. And get down to Merkley and Son's. You should also get ice, but they will give you a bag of ice if you ask nicely. Oh, and finally, and get a box of wheat thins. It's for the ham salad. They make their own ham salad in house and in my humble opinion, it's worth the trip all by itself.

In addition to BBQ, they have an ample selection of steaks, chicken, and burgers. I decided to give the brisket plate a try. While the brisket was tasty, it was quite a bit different from the traditional Texas-style brisket I'm accustomed to eating. The brisket was "chunky" versus "sliced". The sides of potatoes and cole slaw were adequate, but nothing special. I'd probably make a different selection from the menu next time.
