Sauce Boss Southern Kitchen

It’s the first time I came check this place out. It’s recommended by my colleague a while ago and I have saved it on my list for a long time. I am so glad I finally made it here. It’s a super cute family owned place with THE BEST southern style fried chicken I have ever had! Their fries were also super good, fresh, crispy outside and soft inside. just the way I like them to be! Definitely recommend you try it out and be sure you check their opening hours before you go since they kind of have a limited opening hours(that’s actually the reason why I haven’t been here earlier!).

The food is so good, Guy Fieri featured it last year on his show. This place is well worth a little detour off I-15. It has all the staples you’d expect from Southern cuisine: fried chicken, catfish, grits, and even cornbread slice so big I usually end up taking it home. I must confess last time the cornbread was a bit too dry for my taste, but the grits with shrimp and bacon was superb as always. We were lucky enough to enjoy the catfish shipment that had just arrived and was fried to perfection. Thank you Chef Julius Thompson for bringing real Southern cuisine to Salt Lake City! P.S.: Expect spending around $30 pp.

My gal pals and I went out for a birthday celebration at the Sauce Boss Southern Kitchen in Draper last night. If you want some delicious good home style cooking, go to the Sauce Boss. I had the pork shank on a bed of mashed potatoes, collard greens, with seasoned vegetables, which was blistered grape tomatoes on a bed of arugula. The meat was soo tender, cooked to perfection. Collard greens were also tender and flavorful. Two of my friends had the shrimp and grits, and the chicken fried chicken. They couldn't stop raving about their dinners. They serve freshly brewed iced tea, sweet and unsweetened. The executive chef/owner actually brought our entrees out to us. Such a nice touch to be able to talk with him. Service was impeccable. Ambiance 4 1/2 stars. Service 5 stars. Food 5 stars plus. I can't wait to come back.
