4-19-22 Market BBQ Minneapolis MN

Been a long time since I have been back here…. It is always good to see chili in the appetizer section, which is pretty rare. No cups…just one size and it comes with pre packed cheese, sour cream and onion.

As you can see from the pic there are nice large chunks of meat and tomato. There weren’t too many beans and the sauce had a nice consistency. The flavor was really nice, just a good blend of chili, tomato, sweet and smooth. I was expecting a little more smokiness being this is a bbq joint. If that were the case I think this could have been really good. It could have had a tad more heat too but overall pretty solid. The bbq took a back seat to the chili in this place.

Overall flavor – 8/10

Spice level – 7/10

Heat level – 3/10

IT Factor – 3/10

Value – 2/10 ($10 for bowl) plus a supply chain fee on our tab??

first time at MC Tap House. It was a busy Friday of course. Service was great and food came out quickly. Note – the bus boy was awesome…

Friend recommended the chili and it didn’t disappoint. It had some nice kick to it and was more of that classic chili taste for those of you who don’t like much tomato flavor. There were nice hunks of meat and if I had to venture a guess, it was a mix of hamburger and a beef like you would get in a french dip. I would certainly recommend getting it. It had a nice spice blend, little heat and came out nice and hot, with a mini corn muffin.

Overall Flavor – 8.1/10

Spice Level – 7/10

Heat Level – 6/10

IT Factor – 5/10 (nothing flashy except the corn muffin)

Value – 3/10 ($6 for a cup is a little steep)
