Szechuan Safari

Left 3BROS BBQ last night in the torrential rains New York was experiencing, fiending for some Szechuan food. Headed to my favorite flushing spot, Golden Szechuan, only to find it closed. I can only imagine that it was due to the unbelievable amount of rain, and the fact that its located in a basement. (This basement location adds to my love of this restaurant) So, I drove around the block to my friend Hong's recommendation, Spicy Tasty. Place was packed. Got some takeout and hoped it would be similar to my go to spot. It was passable, tasty, and definitely spicy. I now have a suitable backup Szechuan spot. The meats in the dishes were very smokey, and it made me think of a possible sauce variation for Three Brothers Barbeque, a Szechuan inspired barbeque sauce that includes the mouth numbing Sichuan peppercorn. The question is...how? Looks like Ill be headed for my secret food lab to experiment.
