A billion options, Royal Sonesta, Monteleone or Bourbon Orleans in the Quarter, but the Hyatt Place and Marriott on Convention Center Blvd are right next to the cruise lines. The Hilton on Poydras is right in between. The Roosevelt is more CBD but just a block or so from teh Quarter.

i don't use pork belly currently. I'd make a pork belly blt if I did. no need for more proteins around here...maybe a special.

Congrats Tipsy! Are you still selling rub? Can you re-post how to order?

Oh, great. Now I'm having BBQ cravings. Fortunately, I live inTexas so I can do something about it. But it's still cruel to tease us this way.

Send me a check for $25 to McClure's Barbecue @ 4800 Magazine St. N.O. LA. 70115 with a return address and I'll ship them asap. You get 2oz of each rub (pork, chicken, brisket, and ribs) along with smoked salt to play with as you will.
(yes...the price went up $5....shipping is more expensive than i thought.)

I'm coming to NOLA Tuesday night through Friday afternoon. When and where can I meet the famous Mr. McClure (again)?

Great write-up but the spelling error is embarrassing, in the title no less, as you mentioned.

Matt is the kitchen manager / pit master over there. I trained him. He has my recipes. We aren't trying to sell me being there. I'll be the guy that shows up once a week to taste everything and ##### about cleanliness and food labeling & rotation.

Lunch on Wed, Fri, or Sunday would be best...but I'm there often outside of that too. Thursday is a terrible. Saturday is terrible...taking a whole pig about 45 away for catering.The Z Machine said:

I had BBQ one time in that Biloxi/Gulfport area - AnJacs - so awful. Southern towns should have great BBQ, you are sorely needed over there. I will send my friends your way and will consider it doing them a favor.

The brunch menu looks like a winner!

2nd this idea. Although horrible exit/entry, I know a lot of people that would go just to see college tail again.ETA not to mention there is a severe lack of decent bbq joints in the area.I like how you're trending Eastward. The Shed's old building still sits vacant across from South Alabama.

I'll plan on Wednesday lunch assuming schedule permits.
Recs for dinner during my time there? I'm staying at the Sheraton near the CBD.

You need to give a price range for dinner. In New Orleans, there's a wide range of prices and choices.

It's on the company dime, but I have a limited meals and entertainment budget for the fiscal year. I guess I'm looking for not ridiculously priced options near where I'm staying.

Enjoyed Borgne for dinner friday and finally got to try the brisket cheesesteak at tipsys Saturday... Very very good... Dare I say a touch too much on the Provelone sauce? If FORCED to nitpick an otherwise perfect lunch. Side of BBQ Jambalaya may be the best batch I've had (of half dozen times easily)... Had 3 ribs as well because i can't NOT have ribs there.

Dominica has a great happy hour with half price pizza between 2-5 and .50 oysters and half price drinks - or did the last time I was there.
I know I'll get flamed for this, but I've have access to good bbq. I'm sure yours is top notch stuff, but I suspect in comparing your food to food in this area you would differentiate yourself with the sides IMO. Something tells me this menu would be a huge hit and play to your experience and strengths. Obviously as a business owner you have to follow the money not necessarily your strongest skill set. This menu sounds amazing and creative.

Awesome. What about reservations at Domenica?

They take them, so its safer to make them b/c I'm not sure if there's a huge conference in town or if there are any plays/concerts nearby. Although if you're at a point where you can't make them, I'd imagine you could walk in just fine (not withstanding the play/concerts/convention thing)

I didn't make it out to McClures for lunch today as there was no time to get away from the conference. I called McClure's to see if Tipsy was there this evening, but the guy who answered said he was gone for the night.
I did however make it over to August for dinner. The food was really excellent, although I wish I could have lingered longer and enjoyed it more. My colleague isn't much of a foodie or one to take his time with anything.
I'm hoping to make it over to McClure's for lunch on Friday before my flight departs in the evening. I might be able to do dinner tomorrow night though that's not preferred. Tipsy, will you be there either of those two times?
