"🔥🐖 Wire Mill Saloon & BBQ 🐄🔥 @wiremillbbq Redding, CT THE BEST BBQ in CT might not be where you expect. It’s here in the Georgetown section of Redding, CT! Wire Mill Saloon & BBQ is not just your run-of-the-mill BBQ spot. Wire Mill has a friendly, knowledgeable, and charasmatic staff, Americana on the walls, and a darn fun slogan. The meats are the star of Wire Mill. The wings are crisp and tender with a nice smokiness throughout. The port ribs literally fall off the bone. And the brisket, got a ring around it so nice you’ll think you are being proposed to. As far as sides, my favorites are the cole slaw, smoked beans, and beer battered onion rings. If available you MUST HAVE the Beef “Dinosaur” Rib; packs a T-Rex size taste with an amazing flavor profile. Wire Mill is open 5 days a week, Wednesday through Sunday from Noon-9PM. Tell them the Fairfield Food Dude sent ya! #bbq #lowandslow #lunch #dinner #foodexplorertribe"

"Saturday night extremely busy. He said a few minutes, more like 45 minutes, but we waited. Service was quick and friendly though. Was hoping the bbq would be worth the wait , but Unfortunately the bbq was just ok and disappointed in the sides as well. Ribs look delicious but on the dry side. The cornbread the same. The sausage and beans were ok. But the collard greens , not a fan of them. Sorry to say the bbq was just ok, not enough to wait 45 minutes for or come back."

"This place is great. A classic bar and restaurant. I ordered the monster which was amazing. A plain brisket sandwich with house made chips. The meat was so juicy and tasted perfect… the quantity of meat was also surprising. Quite a large portion for a mere 18$…. Great place. I don’t leave Greenwich much but was in town for a job interview… so my standards are high! Would actually drive all the way out there just for this meal again! Service was also excellent. I’d describe the atmosphere as dim lighting very welcoming and inviting, actually quite perfect.."

"I love bbq, and this place hit all the right buttons. We ordered the combo plate which included brisket, ribs and sausage. Everything was so good. As soon as we got there we were seated and the waitress was quick to get our drink order and our food came out quickly. The food was absolutely delicious. Our food came with sweet potato fries and Mac-n-cheese. We will definitely be coming back to this place."

"Saloon vibe with good BBQ. It's obvious that lots of care goes into the meat prep and smoking. Tender ribs and brisket. Sauces are quite tangy but there's a enough smoke in the meat to offset."
— Christian Kleven
