I'm a big dude. I ordered the two meat combo. Got the burnt ends and the ribs . It comes with two single serving sides. All for $15. meat was delicious. Recommend the corn bread side.

Kelly Harmantas

Burnt ends , cornbread , and lemon shake up! If never been here, try the mini sandwiches so you can find your favorite! Keep the mason jar for free drinks when you come back!

Their food is delicious. Finally someone around here can enhance the taste of the food with smoke instead of drowning it in smoke. I thought we would never find a place like this in this area.

Shirley Stevens

Pick up the Mason Jar drinks and get free refills for the life of the jar. Just bring the jar in when you return to collect.

Diego Reynoso

Barbecue everything, rib tips , ribs and especially pull pork are excellent

Grace Catlin

Try the corn casserole . It's really filling but super good! It like cornbread but mashed and fried.

Jay Stein

When they offer BBQ sauce as they are serving your food, say, "No, thank you", and try the sauces available on each table.

The sweet potato soufflé & golden corn bake (corn bread ) were both fantastic!!

Guy Merrill

Great BBQ place , love the sliced brisket . Ribs are good too!

Nancy Dingle

Mix the sauce - hot and mild, delish! Loved the pulled chicken sandwich and baked beans !

Jake Goldsholl

Finally figured out how to order: get mini sandwiches so you don't leave stuffed and your bill is < $10

Chris Steele

Good brisket . Sides were meh. Will try ordering a side of extra brisket next time.

Linda Dubin

Not happy with the ribs . The last 2 times I was there the ribs were so burnt u could not eat them. I complained the first time they were nice but the ribs are awful for the 23.00 they charge go to car

Aaron Massie

Came here once. They didn't have any ribs or brisket in stock. Don't plan on returning again.

Burnt ends . Get them whenever you can.

Everything is good here!

SS Christopher

Get some meat. Vegetables ? Unless you want an over priced salad I wouldn't set the bar much higher than a few burnt green beans marinated in an entire stick of butter.

Kim Sterba

Sweet potato soufflé is awesome

Pleasantly surprised. Burnt ends, legit. Swine wine=solid vinegar sauce. “More Cowbell”= brisket turned into an Alambre (bacon, cheese, peppers), which is unnecessary. Free pickles. Will be back. - Alex Pyatetsky
