Fort Erie - Is this Mecca for Brisket in Southern Ontario?

[stomp]

@Mrs. Stomp and I took another road trip to the Niagara Penisula. We had some good eats along the way and, based on the recommendation of family, bopped down to Fort Erie for a bite of brisket ahead of the drive home. We visited Matty Matteson's Meat+3 restaurant to sample his smoker wares. The restaurant is in a non-descript strip mall out of the way in Ft. Erie. We arrived a bit before opening. The smoker was fired up in the parking lot and being tended by a young man misting the meat contained within. We placed our order and waited just a few minutes before being called back in via bullhorn. The brisket sandwich tasted pretty darn good and the sauce and fixings were most excellent. We picked up a pound of brisket and some Cheetos-dusted macaroni for the kids back in Londontown. They are looking forward to dinner tonight. If you're a briskethead, and are in the neighbourhood, I would recommend a visit to Matty Matteson's.

That's awesome, I need to make the trip.

He had a TV Show, "Dead Set on Life" funniest shit ever.

The Wife and I both split a gut over it.

Totally Agree here -he lives right next door to my son in law in Ridgeway near the cherryhill golf course , has a couple of cookbooks was an executive chef and is a great guy. His food is awesome including his brisket and his fried chicken if it isnt best ever is at least top 3 (next to Westcoast in Kincardine)!

We brought home an order of Mac 'n Cheese which we had also heard was good. It's a totally different taste - I think it may be made with Velveeta or something like that, and topped with Dorito dust (even finer ground than crushed).
