I was pleasantly surprised by their unique, mustard-based cole slaw - it was delicious and unlike anything I had tried before. As a fan of Red Bridge's in Shelby, I can't really compare the two because they have different recipes. However, I definitely recommend Bubba's for its fantastic atmosphere, friendly staff, and irresistible ice cream sandwiches. No matter how full you are, make sure to try them out!

The slow-cooked meat was flavorful and delicious, and I appreciated that the sauce was served on the side so I could season to my liking. A side of slaw complemented the meal perfectly, and a cold sweet tea rounded out the experience. I believe I have found my new favorite lunch spot at Bubba's and will definitely be returning.

The food was outstanding (had the Brisket plate) sides of green beans and some awesome Mac n Cheese Loved how each plate comes with hush puppies too. But the best part of the experience was the owner Bubba Ralph coming by to chat with us. This guy should do stand up comedy. He was hilarious with his dead panned dry sense of humor! Really made it memorable. Everyone needs to put it on their Charlotte BBQ bucket list if not in your regular rotation.

He launches right into his spiel about how Bubba's has reopened and he's out pounding the pavement drumming up new business. He hands me a handful of fliers for the break room and some business cards good for a free sandwich! Awesome! I figure, if this guy can brave the heat to promote his business, who am I to say no? I headed over at lunch and decided to try both the BBQ and brisket sandwiches. Glad I did! Wow! Full of slow cooked meat, tasty and delicious! Sauce on the side so I could season to taste (I don't like a big, wet, sloppy BBQ sandwich so that was a nice touch! A little side of slaw and fun inish it all off with a cold sweet tea and I'll tell you...I think I've found my new go to lunch spot! I'll be back!
