Epicurean Kentuckian: Four sauces at Malachi Smoke House



2015-07-18 - Malachi Smoke House, 234 Steve Drive, Russell Springs, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, CM.
At the newly opened Malachi Smoke House in Russell Springs, I tried the pulled pork sandwich and both kinds of slaw, vinegar and creamy. The meat came plain with sauces to be added at the taster's choice. Sauces on each table for sampling included Carolina Mustard, Texas Hot, Kansas City Sweet and Carolina Vinegar. I'm going to have to do more tasting, working out which may be my favorite. -- LW. Paired photo. See also: Food news
