Slows Bar BQ in Corktown has been a hit since it opened almost three years ago. Located somewhat inconspicuously on Michigan Ave., the restaurant and bar brings the Southern barbecue flavor of “low and slow” to Detroit. Slows specializes in traditional barbecue fare although there is nothing common about the restaurant's ribs, smoked chicken, pulled pork, brisket and other dishes (including the macaroni and cheese side item). Slows also uses all of the original barbeque styles like North Carolina, Texas, and Kansas City. Everything is made in house, and all meats are smoked at Slows over apple and hickory wood.

Outstanding. Their food is truly worth the trip. I went around 4:00 pm and there was no crowd although it was still pretty full. Service was great ...

Their food is the bomb. Seriously, I wish I lived closer. And the beer selection is just as great. A perfect meal.

Luckily I don't work too far from there and I treat myself to their delicious food at least once a week!
