We get takeout from them often. There Brisket, Sausage, Potato Salad and Corn bread are our favorites and get these items in every order. They have excellent food.The one thing we find very irritating is they have never gotten an order right. They are very nice people, but they don't check the order to make sure you got everything that you paid for. We had takeout last night and they forgot to put in the potato salad, but at least we know now to really check BEFORE we go home.

Wow! I’ve lived in the south for a long time across TN and NC, and I’ve been devastated at the lack of good BBQ in New England. So happy I came across this place on Uber Eats. Food was hot and well packed. I was particularly impressed by them packaging the pulled pork seperately from the bread so it didn’t get soggy.Mashed potatoes were killer, cornbread was great, NC pulled pork was perfect without too much gristle or fat. The only thing I’d change was the corn on the cob, which was well cooked but could have used just a little butter and salt. But that’s pretty minor.My new go to BBQ!

Always great BBQ here. As good as the Carolina's spots I used to go to before I retired. Used to sell in the Carolina's and entertained there often at BBQ Lunch spots.

Got take-out and everything was delicious! 6 baby back ribs and1/4 caribbean chicken. Sides were cornbread, beans, mac and cheese. Plenty of food. My daughter and I split it. $32 after tax. Well worth the money.

Food quality is very poor. The brisket does not appear to be smoked even though the restuarant is full of smoke due to poor ventilation. Collard greens were very soupy and contained little shavings of meat. Mac and cheeze vety bland and lacks flavor and other itmes. The service was baf and tjey confused my order btween eat in and taje out. Gave me my food in a to go foam box with everything mixed up. My other friends food came in a small plastic plate not much different condition than the foam box. Place appeared dirty and not very clean.

Wonderful vibe inside. Super nice people, food was out in maybe a minute or two. Got a pulled chicken sandwich with mashed potato for 10 dollars. Cant beat it!

Two years ago, I discovered this barbecue place. I’m from North Carolina, so I do know barbecue and love it. I was surprised at how good it was. But obviously during the pandemic, I stopped going to the restaurant. Yesterday I decided to pick up a barbecue sandwich and a Caribbean chicken sandwich with two sides each. I was very disappointed. The chicken was not cooked well enough so it was tough. Mac & cheese collard greens jambalaya were just OK. The barbecue pork was barely edible. The food went from excellent to yuck. I will probably never go back. The service was fine. Food was subpar.

I will say one thing that really ruined my experience here and a chance at having a better score was they gave me BBQ chicken instead of Brisket, which costed more money to order in the first place mind you. I didn’t figure this out until I got home. Anyways, it’s expensive usually as BBQ plates from restaurants are. The Mac and Cheese was very mediocre, I would never recommend getting it from here. Ribs and the other sides like mashed potatoes and cornbread were good. Overall, isn’t worth getting a second time in my opinion. It was good for a one-time-BBQ-fix if you live close by.

Easily the worst BBQ I've had in my life. The pulled pork was like gristle and the ribs were tough and chewy. Avoid this place at all costs.

First and last food was awful ? New cooks are needed. Rib were somewhat raw after I asked for well done not once but twice. I couldn't believe I took the drive to this place.

I've been eating here every other weekend for the past 6-7 years. The food is always cooked to perfection. The cooks staff has remained the same and those guys are super friendly and nice to the customers. The location is always clean and the manager is nice as well!

Highly overrated had the Memphis ribs and they were terrible. Everything else was fine but the ribs were overcooked and burned and mostly cartilage and bone.
