Wings cooked very well, sauce is house made. Heavier on the butter flavor compared to other house wing sauces I have had. The ribs were my favorite when compared to wings and brisket. The brisket was overly moist and wet for my taste, and awesome flavor. The ribs very tender, and perfect flavor.Sides: the broccoli salad was basic compared to other broccoli salads I have had. The corn pudding was perfect, flavor right on point.

Neat little bbq shack right where you wouldn't expect it. Plan on waiting in line for quite a while to order. Every time we've gone, it's out the door, which says something about the food. Seating is at a premium, but they do have some tables in the back parking lot. The food has been good every time we went and you'll pay about what you would expect to pay these days for a family of four.

I was not expecting to be sent home sooner than planned, but when they say "Texas Inspired," they took all the inspiration!!!Much respect to the craft and the love, sweat, and time to make such a high caliber and consistent menu. Y'all, this place is like they hooked a tug boat to some lost part of texas and towed it to Virginia and put it in the heart of Norfolk!I heard Phil Rosenberg is coming to Norfolk and if he doesn't stop by, he just might lose my respect for him as a Foodie, because out of all the places I've eaten in this great community, this would be the one place, if I could only visit one place!Back to the food; The BRISKET..... ? ? ? ? ?, I almost thought I was at Franklin's in Austin. In true fashion, I asked for marbled and the proportion was perfect! #IYKYKJalapeño sausage was the best I've ever had, having spice and flavor that was so savory and not overwhelming, I wanted more!Mac n Cheese was perfect; creamy, cheesy, nowhere near dry, definitely homemade with love and pride!Beans were not what I expected but in the most tasteful way ever; they are what i would call Cowboy Beans, a lil spice to awaken the taste buds and packed with flavor. I can still taste them, along with the brisket!The ribs pulled apart like the brisket and was complimented more with the Georgia Mustard sauce, which is the best sauce they have, IMO!The chicken was amazing; so good, I decided to save some for later.Pulled pork was no joke; they ain't porkin' around with the seasoning and quality of any of the meats they serve.I ordered the Meat Sweats Platter, and it was everything and more than what I hoped for.I missed out on the Bananamisu, but that just gives me another reason to go back for more!Last thing, Redwood owes me a pair of socks, cause I can't find mine and don't expect to either!!!Thank you, Redwood Crew, and may the Lord continue to keep you in good graces of continuous service to your community and those visiting!Until next time, Peace....✌?
