We tried some AMAZING food yesterday , and I just have to share! 🤤❤️
First stop was Hines BBQ in Lyons, where my husband and I finally tried their smoked brisket cheeseburgers for the first time—and WOW. 😍🍔 The brisket was smoky, tender, and packed with flavor, and paired with a juicy burger patty and melty cheese, it was seriously the perfect combination. That smoky BBQ flavor with all the cheesy, beefy goodness made for one heck of a burger! And I have to mention the homemade pickles—they were FANTASTIC! 🥒🤤 They added the perfect tangy crunch and took the burger to another level!
Then we made a stop in Sterling to check out The Salty Knot, which was there for yesterday’s event. 🥨❤️ We’re so glad we got the chance to try them because everything was SO yummy! Their treats were fresh, delicious, and the perfect little sweet-and-salty stop. It was definitely one of those finds where you take a bite and immediately think, “Yep, I’m glad we tried this!” 😋
I absolutely LOVE finding local businesses and getting to try what they have to offer. Supporting small businesses while eating amazing food? That’s a win-win in my book! 🙌🏼❤️
If you get a chance to catch The Salty Knot at an event, definitely give them a try! And if you’re ever in Lyons, don’t sleep on those smoked brisket cheeseburgers at Hines BBQ! 🍔🔥
