It was dinner time and we realized it was Mardi Gras! Kudos to Jennifer and John(Chef) for bringing cajun to people not willing to drive to SLC for good Utah eats all the time.

To starts things off we had fried cheese curds. What can make squeaky cheese even better? Fry it! The 3 dipping sauces for the curds included; creole sauce, cajun mustard, and a mayonnaise. They also have okra on the menu (seasonal).

Louis Armstrong bolts from speakers as we sit at the 50's style bar stools enjoying sweet tea.

Appreciate the chalk art menu instead of the standard paper.

A calm night likely because Soul & Bones doesn't serve alcohol.

For $9.00 I ordered half of the smoked chicken with two sides: baked beans and french fries. The sauce had a kick and I highly recommend using your hands for an experience. My first response was to use utensils-just dig in, it is BBQ!

I failed to mention that there are free refills on the sweet tea-$2.00. Thank you to Colpitts for sharing- to help me cut the heat(I am not from the south and still gaining my taste buds for heat-look out Indian food).

Colpitts had a huge plate of jambalaya. Did anyone else out there think jambalaya was similar to soup or gumbo? Again, I am not from the south. He seemed to enjoy the small and large shrimp, sausage, chicken meat and pile of rice.

If we only had room and not leaving with doggie boxes (instead of bags), I would have tried the key lime or peanut butter cream pie.

We will return and try the hush puppies (not just a shoe brand).

Don't be intimated by the location (next door to the Lighthouse). Be adventurous and you will be rewarded for giving Soul & Bones BBQ a try!
