Brother Browns sauces all his orders although I\u2019m sure if asked you could probably order without sauce if that is to your taste. However, unlike a lot of barbecue, Brother Brown&#8217;s sauce is an integral part of the &#8216;cue. Concocted by Brother Brown himself, this sauce is unlike any others&#8212;-it has elements of several different regions but comprises a flavor all its own. Not too sweet and not too vinegary, not too tomatoey, it seems subtle at first taste. Just a little heat shows up. After a minute the heat intensified; not enough to overpower the other spices or seasonings, but enough to tell you that there&#8217;s magic going on in that sauce. <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">On t<\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">hat visit, my dining companion got the country rib special which earned high praise. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-4338 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/El-Korah-Chicken-Sandwich-300x190.jpg\" alt=\"Brother Brown's Underground El Korah Chicken Sandwich\" width=\"300\" height=\"190\" \/>On a<\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">nother <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">visit<\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">, my dining companion got the <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">El Korah<\/span><\/span><\/span> <span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Chicken<\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"> Sandwich.

The ribs are dry rubbed, smoked and then doused in the sauce and are quite excellent. <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">With ribs as one of my favorites, I rank these in the Top 10. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-4339 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/The-Chuck-Platter-300x237.jpg\" alt=\"Brother Brown's Underground The Chuck\" width=\"300\" height=\"237\" \/>One <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">d<\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">ay, I just felt like a sandwich. Carlas suggested the Chuck, a polish sausage on a toasted bun, topped with pulled pork, cole slaw and his sweeter, thicker barbecue sauce. He seems to have several different sauces that he has personally created to use on specific items. This was an absolute mess; and well worth it. All the flavors and textures complemented each other, with the nicely grilled polish sausage topped with a good portion of pulled pork and some nice pieces of delicious bark on them. The cole slaw offered a slightly tart, fresh and crispy counterpoint to the others while the sweetness of the barbecue sauce went nicely with the vinegar accent of the cole slaw. <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">This is a sandwich that has to be tried; unique, flavorful and filling. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-4340 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Collard-Greens-281x300.jpg\" alt=\"Brother Brown's Underground Collard Greens\" width=\"281\" height=\"300\" \/>The sides are plentiful, with either one or two included with each sandwich or meal. The baked beans are quite good and a nice standard barbecue side. My dining companion swore that the Mac and Cheese was one of the best, full of flavor and very creamy. The <\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\">bacon and onion green beans were a treat, with nice pieces of crispy bacon and sweet onion slices among the green beans. <\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\">Overall, though, the collard greens seem the epic side, full of flavor and a traditional side that just moved the meal into the awesome category. This is as traditional a barbecue side dish as you can get; and even if you have never had it, it\u2019s worth trying at Brother Brown\u2019s Underground. Other sides include rosemary garlic potatoes and a variety of salads.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\">Other barbecue specialties include the smoked brisket, tender slices of beef topped with a tasty sauce. It is available as Uncle Wash\u2019s Sandwich or as a Dinner. Another is the Smoked Yardbird Leg Quarter Dinner, served on sourdough and topped with sauce. <\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\">For those who want something besides barbecue, the menu includes a <\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\">T<\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\">una <\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\">M<\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\">elt, <\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\">BBLT, burgers, a Gobble, Gobble Club sandwich and even a Cheesy Grilled Cheese. Dinners add such items as Blueberry Granola Meatloaf, Pork Tenderloin and a Garlic and Herb Crusted Grilled Salmon. There are even flame broiled Top Sirloin and Ribeye Steaks for the beef eaters in the crowd. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-4344\" src=\"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Country-Style-Ribs-with-Collard-Greens-and-Mac-n-Cheese-272x300.jpg\" alt=\"Country Style Ribs at Brother Brown's Underground\" width=\"272\" height=\"300\" \/>The staff at Brother Brown\u2019s Underground seems to truly care about pleasing their customers. Service has been excellent every time I have been there. It sounded from chit-chat I overheard from other tables that there are a lot of regulars, so that coupled with the word of mouth advertising means they are doing something right. The prices are very reasonable at Brother Brown\u2019s, <\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\">offering excellent value for the dollar<\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\">. <\/span><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\">After 4pm, the El Korah Bar opens so there is a full cocktail bar available for dinner. All items at Brother Brown\u2019s Underground can be made up for takeout. Dine-in is in comfortable, COVID proactive social distancing tables and booths with staff wearing appropriate masks. As with many places, hours may be changing right now due to Spring\/Daylight Saving\/COVID changes so it is best to check the Facebook page or call ahead to verify<\/span> <span style=\"color: #2b273c;\">closing time. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #2b273c;\">Brother Brown\u2019s Underground is definitely worth a visit, whether you are in Downtown Boise for shopping, work or business, or just want to go for some tasty, unique barbecue different from anything else you can find in the Treasure Valley.
