If you live in MS and never heard of this Southern staple, you're not a true Jacksonian. Southern transplants and travelers passing thru, have probably heard of Big Apple Inn. It's definitely a hidden gem with so much history, culture, but most importantly, you can see Jackson thru the smiles of the people cooking up your food.
I've heard of this place from locals, the food channel and on multiple social outlets, but I've never had a chance to go. Finally, I was able to make my way and boy was I upset...Upset that I haven't gone sooner. I called in my order 15 minutes beforehand. Two smokes (red sausage), hot (spicy level), with slaw. Two ears (pigs ears), hot, with slaw. You can also get it with no spicy to very spicy and without slaw.
When I got inside, I was quickly greeted by the two sweet ladies at the counter. My little bag of happiness was awaiting for my arrival, you can see the grease seeping through, just enough to say hello haha She quickly rung me up, $6 for 4 sandwiches?! Winner, winner! Piglet dinner!
I couldn't wait to dig into the ears. It was cooked down so well, it literally melted in my mouth. I love the texture, it was gelatinous, but had a nice little chew from the cartilage, the slaw added a nice crunch. The smokes were also great, I highly recommend getting it with slaw to add some texture. The sandwiches were so soft, I ate it in a few bites. Don't let their size fool you though, it's quite filling without giving you that I need a nap feeling. Call me crazy, but I had it room temperature a few hours later and I felt it tasted even better than it was fresh off the griddle! I think I need a few more of those ears next time.
