You can't help but smile when talking to Curt Briggs, a.k.a. Captain Curt. His enthusiasm is matched only by the bold flavors of his Famous Boss Sauce. Working from recipes that date back three generations, Briggs has been serving up platefuls of smoked meats drenched in lemon-honey, hickory, hot and mild Boss Sauce for more than 28 years. His Avalon Park spot offers live jazz and R&B and hours that extend late into the night. Order at the counter, then grab a table and join in the fun. Like the sign in front of the restaurant says, Shazzam!
