Best Brisket in town. Disappointed the Armadillo eggs were rem oved from the menu, otherwise would be 5 stars.

Baby back ribs seem warmed over and dry. the dusted hut friars are more like chips. they were quite salty and not fresh or crisp. have no taste. mac cheese was bland and dry again. green beans were in order. chicken wings had a strange texture. I wish I could find something positive, but it was just not the case. my best guess is that eating is prefabricated and sitting under a heat lamp until sale.

My new Go To Barbeque. Brisket sandwhich on Texas toast was tender and juicy. The housemade potato chips were light, crispy and not over-salted. Best coleslaw I've had in quite a while.

What a clunker. They advertise being open until 8pm. Just ordered AND PAID FOR Grubhub order. Just got email that my lrder was cancelled due to the restaurant being closed. Oh and even though it took 3-5 seconds for my payment to complete it will now take 3-5 business days to see the refund. A complete joke and cant wait to pass this on word of mouth. You could even see the poor Grubhub driver making their way to the restaurant.
