This place is a hidden gem. I was very surprised with the flavor and tenderness of the meats. You get good portions and great tasting food. Their watermelon fresh water is amazing too! Will definitely be coming back.

Brisket sliced wrong, with muscle and not against muscle. Made it too stringy and not pleasurable. Old meat, not fresh that day. Slaw tasted strange, not mayonnaise with vinegar, not fresh. Sausage good, but old and shriveled up.

Overall, the food is really good. It’s got a good taste. I can’t complain. It’s a lot better than most of expensive barbecue locations. Great portions to be honest amazing.

Just happened by and decided to stop and grab some lunch. Pretty standard selection of menu items and prices are on par with other BBQ joints in the area, but everything was served in healthy portions and was delicious. Will be coming back. Lot is shared with a hand car wash, so during busier times, parking might be an

Ordered on the doordash app for the first time. I had the brisket and hot sausage, with side of mac and cheese and rice casserole. Very yummy! Super smoky flavor and sausage had that juicy snap to it. Comes with big portions. :) will buy again :)

Eat 2 or 3 times a week here, but today the wings seem to be different? I usually don't mind paying the higher price because they are good, but not worth it today....I'll come back next week. The Potato is cold today lots of brisket though. 1st time not so great out of the 10 to 15 times I've been eating here.Parking: Sometimes hard to find.

If you think this place is good, you are quite literally, smoking j’s. This is THE worst bbq place I have ever had. Potato salad: store bought and disgusting. Mac n cheese: super bland. Sweet tea: Lipton tea. Bbq sauce: tasted burnt. Brisket: too fatty. Only thing decent was the potato itself because how do you mess up a potato?? A complete waste of money.

This is a family owned restaurant. I really wanted to give 5 stars but just cannot. We drove 40 minutes to try this place. Ordered almost everything on the menu but the pulled pork. The ribs were old, brisket soooooo tender BUT all meats had zero salt and seasoning flavor. If not for the BBQ sauce we would have been dead in the water and wasted our money. It was edible but not worth the drive. The young girl at the front counter had to re ring us up as the total we paid was wrong. She was unable to explain the menu and how to best order for my family of 4. The white bread was wrapped in plastic wrap....it was old. Not going back again. My recommendation fresh is best. You lose customers and regulars. Add...Salt , seasoning. I burped bbq smoke for 2 days....wondering why this was. Never happens to me. Sorry if TMI. But sharing is necessary here.

I ordered the brisket beans and fries. I bet I got 3/4 of a pound of brisket and it was dang sure good. The pinto beans red beans were cooked perfect. Including my drink was $14.99 cannot beat it.Parking: I could see parking could getting a little hard, but I had no problem.

I purchased this on UberEats because it looked good and the reviews were good and i was too lazy to go anywhere. Well, my food tasted and looked like two day old BBQ, if you know what I mean...it just didn't taste fresh. I also gave my coworker some and he said the same thing. I ordered a three meat plate, ribs, sausage, and brisket. The two sides were rice casserole and green beans. The rice casserole which was like a very spicy sausage and cheese mixture...I can't really say what tasted like, it was just different! The green beans were bland...just green beans no season. I gave them 3 stars because of the amount of meat I received. I would definitely try them again if the BBQ was fresh!
