Lets face it: This is Florida. Its friggin H to the O-T all year round, so how can you tell when summer is finally upon us? By the shallow seasonal changes? Nope. Its the smell of BBQ wafting in from backyards all across SoFla that signals the onset of summer. Indeed, theres nothing like grilled meats, cold beer, and groovy tunes to make the hot (-ter) season a little more bearable, and nobody knows this better than the peeps at Backroom Blues Bar (7200 N. Dixie Hwy, Boca Raton). Every Sunday starting at 3 p.m., theyll carry on the fine tradition of Sunday BBQ. Five bucks will get you spot on Backrooms patio, under the shade of a lofty banyan tree, where you can chill, drink brews, and listen to blues guitarist JP Soars, Grateful Dead cover act Crazy Fingers, and a host of random guest musicians jam the day away. As for food, Chef Iggy, the award-winning chef formerly of Alligator Alley, will throw down a spread of tasty grub BBQ, gumbo, corn on the cob, grilled chicken, and the like, all for just $9 a plate. (Were also told he plays a mean mandolin.) Owner John Yurt describes the shindig as hippie friendly, and to be honest, what BBQ is complete without some hippies? (You know what I mean, folks.) Call 561-988-8929, or visit www.thebackroombluesbar.com.
