Appropriately lined with photos of glazed, steaming animal parts, Republic's dark wood second location's slinging starters like deep fried "Pickle Freaks" and citrus chipotle BBQ-sauced "Shhh...Hush Puppies", plus main event-ers like "just meat" by the pound, pulled pork/chicken sandos, bovine and porcine ribs, and ½ pound Angus burgers including the pepperjack/ caramelized onion/ grilled pepper/ Louisiana hot sauce "Link" -- a find so hot, it's sure to go missing.
