Sunday, the contingency played 9 holes at Quarry Ridge. We determined that we'd quit after 9 to go to the South Tavern on Main Street in South Glastonbury for some food and drink.
Little did we know, one of their Sunday specials is an $8.00 plate of bottomless nachos...of ANY variety. Chicken, ground beef, and pulled pork. If the waitress said steak, I didn't hear her, as I'm sure my co-eaters would agree, we were set on pulled pork as the words left her mouth.
She brought them out after a few minutes. Nick(Sauce Boss) mentioned he wasn't hungry because he had housed two enormous hotdogs before teeing off, so Justin, the worst golfer on the planet, and I dug in...
I can't claim to be a pulled pork connoisseur, but I know what I like and this was good pulled pork. It had just the right amount of barbeque sauce in it. It was a little on the sweet side, which I like, but smokey at the same time. They had done a decent job of placing the pork amidst the chips, so it wasn't too hard to come by a chunk when scoping out the next set of chips to grab.After I put down about ten bites, the Sauce Boss gave into temptation and dove in full strength.
The rest of the nachos were pretty run-of-the-mill. Quality corn tortilla chips, both yellow and blue, decent cheese coverage, a sizable dollop of sour cream, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, plenty of black beans(which looked funny to me, just sitting there all by themselves on the plate afterwards), and a few freshly cut jalapenos strewn about on top.

I'm not sure if you can check the timestamps on the photos below, but the three of us blew through the first plate in just under 9 minutes.
Justin and I ordered our meals, and a second plate of nachos.
The first plate took it's toll soon after we started in on the second plate. The waitress brought us a ramekin of fresh salsa for the second plate, but we barely touched it. It seemed good from the one scoop I took.
This plate took a little longer to put down as I was left picking through the last quarter for pork by myself. Needless to say I took my sandwich home with me.
Overall, they were good nachos. Not the best we've had as a group, but not the worst. Definitely something we'll get in the future.
