Maybe one day I'll come with the 2 inch seal! One of the best steaks I've ever had. I'll come to Abilene anytime. The grain bread and the bread were both fantastic!!! Great food and a great value for your .

Brisket and potato salad was great! The ribs were decent, but was really disappointed in the green beans and sausage. The green beans came out completely plain like they were just dumped out of a can by themselves with nothing added. Even lower end restaurants add something to season up the beans a bit. The sausage was the real disappointment, very tough and tasteless. Gave a few of my friends at the table a couple pieces without saying anything, and they just kind of stared and said that sausage is pretty bad . According to reviews, they have amazing steak, so I should probably try that sometime, but for everything else I 'll continue going to a different place.

They give you corn bread and slices of fresh bread before the meal, too. The staff was all very friendly and helpful, as well. They were pretty busy, but I still didn't have to wait long for anything. Definitely recommend if you're in the area.

It was a weekday at 4pm, and within minutes of being seated, the place filled up. It's always a good sign when locals are trying to beat the dinner rush that usually means the food brings in a crowd. I'm not a huge fan of BBQ, but the other selections available were varied and all looked delicious. I went with the hamburger steak with new potatoes and cabbage, and it was one of the best meals I've eaten in the last few years absolutely impeccable! The homemade breads and jalapeño cornbread were also AMAZING. I've just found my go to dinner spot when work takes me anywhere near Abilene! Spectacular food with friendly and efficient service.

You order the steak by inches instead of ounces here. Really recommend order the 2 ' ' steak and shareit with another person. My friends order 3/4 ' and 1 1/3 ' steak but mine got the perfect medium. The fried onion and okra is alsogood. Really recommend this place if you come by abilene.

The dining room must have been busy as there were a ton of cars in the parking lot. The BBQ combo plate was great.I'd stop and eat here again.

Despite the pit being nowhere in sight, the all-wood decor should feel right at home for any BBQ restaurant veterans. The menu has all the staples (brisket, ribs, etc), and even ribeye for those wanting something a bit more.Both the turkey and sliced brisket were cooked perfectly, and came with a tangy BBQ sauce that complemented both. The okra andveggies were great sides, neither one overcooked. The potato salad was a bit unusual, being more mashed than usual, but stillflavorful. All of this great food was complemented by the terrific servers, who kept our drinks full and offered greatsuggestions.

The bread was hard, the corn was old, the steak was $30 grisly very tough and hard to eat (I did eat half of it) , but what topped it off for me was the baked potato was so over cooked andtasted so nasty I couldn't eat it! I will never go back! The pictures don't show you completely but it was like rubber!
