BUBBA’S You can get beef – you can even get a salad, if you want – but pork is king here. We particularly recommend the pork shoulder, on a bun or on a plate with beans and slaw. Two kinds of sauce are available, one sweetish, one hottish, and there’s a nice beer list. As is appropriate for a barbecue place, it’s enjoyably atmospheric, with its pink paint and its pig paraphernalia all around, including a poster that proclaims “PORK! The Other Pulled Meat.” A good eating place in a town that has more than its share. Very popular with the locals. 166 W. Van Buren Beer CC 479-253-7706 LD Mon.-Sat.
