Night two on my own. Dinner and a drink in downtown Hbg.

Atmosphere: Off the beaten path, a block off of 2nd St. MoMo's has a nondescript, neon-tinged front window. Inside, a waitstand followed by bar on the right, a few tables to the left and booths further back. Much larger inside than the outside lets on. Roomy too. The bar is fully stocked, liquor and the taps. No frills, befitting good BBQ.

Quality: Good service, nice joint. Beer list was so-so but the wings more than made up for it.

Service: It took a minute to be greeted at the empty bar, perhaps a few steps longer than I would have liked. After that, though, everything clicked. Recommendations, light conversation and frivolity ensued.

Selection: 8-10 beers on tap, with a few open lines left over. Decent craft selection - Sculpin, Stone IPA, Tramp Stamp, Stoudt's APA, Thirsty Dog. I went with the Sculpin, it's hoppiness a nice pairing with the spicy wings. Not the best tap list but more than enough to keep me interested.

Food: Ding Ding Ding! I had a combo of wings and ribs. The ribs were dry, St. Louie style and delicious. The wings were coated in Maple Bourbon sauce - thick and delicious. NC-style sauce was provided, a nice accompaniment to the fries. Can't get that maple bourbon out of my head...

Stopped in the BBQ joint for the 1st time on 3/25/12. Located in downtown Harrisburg, so parking can be a bit of a pain if you are not dropping money into a parking garage. The place looks small and narrow from the outside, but once you enter they have a nice long bar and the seating goes back a good distance.

Our bartender was very attentive and they had approxmiately 8-9 taps. Tap selection decent as only one real macro, had flying Dog, Dogfish head, Stoudts,and, Windmyer, and a few others. On top of this they had over 125+ bottles to choose from on their wall. Drafts seemed more reasonbly priced than some of the bottles though.

Food: Had the brisket. mac & cheese/fries for my sides. Food was outstanding and decently priced.

Overall decent vibe, good beer selection, and awesome food. By the way their BBQ sauces are incedible. Had the SPICY MAPLE BOURBON and MANGO HABENERO.

Will be making another trip
