Every place in town is trying to recreate what Nathan has done at In The Woods with his BBQ. The meats are fantastic and the sides are worthy of a meal in themselves. The presentation is on point and Nathan will take good care of you. My husband and I enjoyed a great conversation with Nathan and his daughter as well. A wonderful experience. Easy to get to, good parking, and the best BBQ!! I highly recommend.

Mr. Woods is an up and comer on Yelp, and I expect many more fond reviews after this 1st one. This is a small Wood family owned restaurant that knows how to smoke. Honest, caring, and good at cooking down home BBQ and comfort foods like Smoked Mac & Cheese (my favorite), and baked beans, and potato salad of the mustard variety. I had the smoked brisket, chicken, ribs, and links on this Memorial Day Weekend. It's a small place, so get there early because they will run out before the sun sets. All the sides were great! Try it, you'll like it!

Yo, eat this food; it's fantastic BBQ. There is food that tastes good and then there is food that brings you to a whole different dimension. This is that type of food; brisket, Ribs, chicken, smoked mac'n cheese - all made for you from generations of love. Man, Nathen over here changing your whole perspective with just a rib and some cheesy noodles!“Real soul food is food that enhances the soul... It is the food that you eat that would reconnect you with the energies of life" - Dr. Sebi

I am a born and raised Texas girl. I've been eating barbecue since I was just a bluebonnet baby.When I tell you this is - without contest - the absolute BEST barbecue I have ever had in my life, please know it's no exaggeration.This is worth the drive, it's worth eating outside or in your car (our kids were asleep, so we ate in the car), it's phenomenal food. Also, they're so nice! Very different feeling than a different nearby restaurant.Anyway, TLDR; Go spend your money here. I will reimburse you if you thought it was bad BBQ. Because there's no way.

The BBQ here is great and the service is fast and friendly, if you like a good bark on your Q this is the place to go. Don't fall for the tourist traps downtown that overcharge and underweigh. Make the 5 minute trip to this store for some mouth watering meats, you'll be glad you did. (Chicken and Ribs pictured)

Best BBQ in the city, meat is absolutely tender. The bark on the brisket is a work of art, and the smoked sausage has great smokey flavor. Can't wait to go back for more. Black family-owned business
