First time here.. drove 2 hours for the worst BBQ ever... first when we walked in all eyes on us like we didn't belong there...then ordered chicken tacos,beef ribs and brisket... all I can taste is lighter fluid, brisket was dry .. won't come back

Fantastic find! I enjoyed the brisket and have enough left for lunch tomorrow! Hubby had the pork burrito and loved it.

Absolutely amazing BBQ, brisket was great. Sauce to dip it in, delicious. Sides homemade and perfectly seasoned and balanced, had the potato salad and coleslaw. Coming from a fellow chef, you guys know what you’re doing! Keep it up, and love the energy in the kitchen. You can tell your guy is passionate about the craft of BBQ.

My husband and I each had the two meat nachos and oh my goodness!!! Neither one of us could eat it all! It was so delicious!! Beater than the other two BBQ places in Culpeper! The restaurant (on Main Street) was impeccably clean. Now let’s talk about the staff! Our server was awesome and so friendly and helpful! The owner, Ronnie, came out to introduce himself and chatted for a bit. Everything about our dining experience was A++?

Absolutely fantastic food and atmosphere! Visited the Main St restaurant for brunch today. I haven’t had brisket this good since my trip to Austin, TX. If you’re looking for authentic, mouthwatering bbq this is your place.

We went to a special event at their downtown Culpeper location.I really wish I could give them five starts as the place is nice, and the food excellent. The problem is the service was lacking. So I'll start with the bad. The sound system was way too loud for the space. After many people complained they finally lowered it and got it close. a tiny bit lower and everyone would have been happy. We get events need it a bit on the loud side but they were crazy loud, and for the space it was way too loud.Next the staff was great. but they needed more help for a full house. The poor gal serving us was way overwhelmed. The manager and owner were doing their best, but for a sell out event they need more help.After that, the event was good. the food excellent and everyone seemed to have a great time. we plan on coming back and I know it'll be better as I talked to the owner and he really seemed to care and want to make things even better.Did I mention the food was excellent. And I'm not big on BBQ. Overall they'll be a five star place in Culpeper but right now four seemed right for when they're busy. go when they're slower and you'll love it. Otherwise be a little patient and just relax and have great food casually.

OMG the best place in town. Try the new restaurant the margaritas are awesome. Plus, they are a great group of people. Enjoy!!!!

We love this place! Their smoked meat is so good - it really doesn't need any special fixings. Just get some pork bbq and their heavenly, vinegar-based spicy sauce. Yum.

First time visiting, live not far.. fauquier County I have driven by many times never stopped. Tonight first time and I can also save the last time. I got a full rack of pork ribs, first bite I was overcome by the taste of lighter fluid, or the taste of charcoal that you cooked too sooner because you didn't wait long enough. I'm 60 years old. And yes, I've eaten all different types of barbecue. In fact, I lived in Texas for a little while in San Antonio and I'm here to tell you know place has lighter fluid than part of the sauce. The worst $30.54 that I've spent in a very long time. I had a friend with me. He ordered a half rack of pork ribs and a pulled pork sandwich and he said exactly the same thing and when we were both taking the first bite, we looked up at each other and that's what we both said and you can't get the taste out of your mouth.
Tried the chicken and beef and they were juicy, tender, and smokey. Bbq sauce was sweet with the perfect amount of spice. Will have to swing by on our way back home.

We visited for the first time today and will definitely go back! The brisket tacos were soooo good; can't wait to try some of their sides!

Incredible burnt ends yall! Seriously - this place is all love. The BBQ brisket is crisp, juicy, and has beautiful smoke rings. You can tell this is Texas bbq at its finest. The BBQ sauce is really unique as well and was a huge hit with my friends. Can’t pass this place without stopping.

they opened a sit-down place next to the Lord Culpeper Hotel in downtown Culpeper. Great food and crew. They know how to cook. Wife had pulled pork and brisket for me. TOP Shelf chow. Swing by and try.

We've had a chance to enjoy their food truck and the brand new downtown Culpeper location. The BBQ is fantastic and reasonably priced, especially in today's world. The family is awesome and take genuine pride in each dish they put out. The nachos are a must!!
