“Hello, I hail from the great state of Texas. I ordered the turkey ribs from JACS BBQ and let me tell you they were exceptional. I seen the post on Facebook and put my order in. My ribs made it to my home here in Texas the next day. As soon as I opened the package I hit with a hint of smoke. My family and I ate every inch of those turkey ribs last night and will be ordering more. So if you have not had them your missing out on some good eating. Shout out to JACS for a job well done.“

“We were in town to visit the WW2 veterans museum which is wonderful. We picked the brain of local vet and he suggested Rolo’s. We were not disappointed. The food was great! It was hot and tasty and service was top notch. Only complaint was it was busy and not enough tables. This is because they’re so popular and the place was packed. It’s a good sign when it’s packed and the food and service is still good. I’d definitely recommend.“
