    I'm smoking a brisket for my Super Bowl party and while I know that ideally the Meat Stands Alone, I was planning on having bread (pumpernickel, most likely) available for sandwiches along with bbq sauce and other sandwich-related vegetation. I've tried poking around and don't really see menus like Smoque that mention any other embellishment. I had smoked beef at Schwartz's in Montreal and think it was served straight up as well.

    Anyone have any suggestions ? Some horseradish, maybe ?

    Horseradish and horseradish sauce.

    Kosher garlic half-dills which is what they serve at Schwartz's.

    I don't know if it'd count as a side per se, but a big bowl of burnt ends made from resmoking the copped up point is all I need. If you have the smoker going and have room, I'd definitely take the opportunity to throw some sausage on there for an appetizer.

    For the smoker, I season with Ancho ground chile(not chile powder), garlic and cumin powder and salt before smoking and serve on a white or light wheat bun with a homemade BBQ sauce available.-Dick

    Schwartz' has both garlic dills and half-sours, plus fries, coleslaw and peppers. You can also get chopped liver, which some locals in fact do. Amazing.

    Don't forget the black cherry soda! :lol:

    Nothing like the 8 oz of smoked meat, rib steak, garlic pickles, french fries and half a loaf of bread ... Nothing like that here.

    I had that at Schwartz's. I barely made it back to the hotel.

    I'll definitely get pickles & some cole slaw (normally I'd make it myself but I've got enough to do Sunday).

    That is quite tempting ... especially with the $45 OW fares MDW-BUF.
