CONSIDERABLY the most unique out of the Southern Indiana BBQ tour, Carr’s
BBQ and Market is just that, a market. This is the feel and look of the interior of their
Floyds Knobs location. While they do serve meals and offer catering, Carr’s is the
only stop on the list to also sell wholesale products, from meat to pickles.
Owner Adam Carr takes pride in the Southern Indiana atmosphere, raising his
own cattle and purchasing his ingredients from local Farmer’s markets.
“All the meat here is raised in Southern Indiana. Everything is as local as we can
get it,” Carr said.
“Raised here locally, 100 percent all natural. No hormones, no antibiotics. We’re
a member of Indiana Grown, our version of Kentucky Proud.”
The BBQ sauce itself is made by Carr’s father, a Memphis style dry rub. But Carr
prefers to let the meat stand alone and let the tasty sauce come on the side.
“It’s a mix between a Carolina and an Arkansas. It’s not real vinegary, but also
not real ketchup-y or sugar-y,” Carr said. “But really it’s the way you smoke it that
sets you apart.”
Carr offered a delicious plate of pulled pork with a variety of classic BBQ sides, a
personal favorite being the mac and cheese, complete with a plethora of different
cheeses and seasoned to perfection.
Another unique menu item Carr has to offer is smoked salmon, a huge hit come
Lent, of course.
Catch Carr’s anytime Wednesday through Saturday.
