Two in our household don't eat beef or pork, but they loved the smoked turkey. The brisket was tender and full of flavor on its own (although we all enjoyed the sauce too). Definitely our new go to for BBQ. (edited to add a written review)

Ordered a package with ribs, brisket, pulled pork, wings, beans and waffle fries from here. Absolutely zero leftovers! I tried everything mentioned above and I had seconds (or thirds, if there was still some) from everything. Highly recommended. Also, I ordered sriracha mayo. It was really good with all the meats, particularly (in my opinion) with the wings.

Fried Okra would hold its own in South Carolina, brisket, pork, ribs are all go to dishes. If you cant go to Texas, SC, KC, etc. this spot will satisfy you and make you happy!!!!!. If you have been to Green Street meats, a good spot, this place is better!!!!!

I didn't realize that the charming restaurant name was a hint about the size of the meals you'd be receiving. Paying $50 for two tiny dishes feels like a bit of a scam.
