Al's Finger Licking Good Bar-B-Que and Soul Food

Al's pairs smoked meats with soul food sides from a longtime family operation in Ybor City. The current Seventh Avenue restaurant combines the barbecue and soul food menus, making it possible to mix ribs or chopped pork with greens, macaroni, beans, and yellow rice. The resulting trays naturally encourage passing bites and sides across the table.

Al's Tennessee style barbecue runs through pulled pork, yellow rice and chicken, black eyed peas, and other family named dishes. The operation has consolidated its barbecue and soul food menus into one Seventh Avenue address, preserving a long running Ybor presence while making both smoked meats and home style sides available together.
