These are a few of my favorite things..
BBQ is awesome, live music was great and it's family-friendly.
Pt Molate is like taking a trip back to a time where people were caring and considerate of their neighbors because they know what they have is like Shangri-la. An oasis away from the daily grind just over the hill.
Extra points for that old school Burning Man feel, without suffering 50 mile per hour dust storms and 100+ degree heat. LOL

Was going to order hot links but they were sold out. So I ordered the beef brisket. Too much fat and it needed more sauce. Good BBQ doesn't need sauce but the meat was dry & flavorless. Sorry but that doesn't cut it in my book.

BLACK STAR makes BBQ. Actual BBQ. Smoked, tender, meats. Ketchup based sauces with drippings. The portions aren't GIGANTIC, But the bowl for a single person is filling enough, sharing is a decent snack.

The pulled pork isn't a stringy mess that uses sauces to hide like other places. No, BLACK STAR has chunky, melt-in-your-mouth tender pulled pork that is delightful even without the sauce.

The sauce, pulled pork, cowboy beans and potato salad are GLUTEN FREE as well.

Let me keep this simple: For twenty bucks inc tip you walk up to the black-painted foodtruck in the back of Baltic Kiss, in the parking lot at 78 Railroad Avenue, and you get a "bowl" = deepdish compostable takeout container of the best barbecue you ever tasted, no matter where you come from or where you been. Sorry, I only stick to the ribs and the brisket (I'm sure the chicken and the pulled pork are just as good and I'm sure I'll get to that.) Opens at 11 AM most days; if you get there early like that, there's no hurry; perfect. Same BBQ you get at the Baltic Kiss after five pm. Best BBQ. Y'hear? Best.

Love this food ! Flavor says it all! And Baltic Kiss is a gem with funky atmosphere, full bar and live local music. Everything is the best when it comes to the food. I usually get the pulled pork with greens and coleslaw and make myself a BBQ salad out of it with their sauces (amazing) as the dressing...YUM! Dine in at Baltic Kiss and have a cocktail too !
