The service was not very friendly. But the portions were very generous the ribs were undercooked and way too salty. But the pulled pork, brisket and sides were amazing. Prices are reasonable for the portion of food you are getting. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30 Food: 4 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 2

Server was amazing, had no problem recommending and highlighting what she really enjoys. So we ordered a few things that she highlighted and wow wasn't expecting it to be that bad. Spent just over $30 for 3 meats (incredibly small servings) 2 sides, only thing that was hot was the Mac Cheese. The Mac Cheese didn't even taste like anything, paid an extra $1 for brisket which was not only at most lukewarm but super dry (had to chase with beer), the thin ribs were so dry and the chicken was a little I mean little juicy (compared to the others, didn't take much) but no smoke note and the skin wasn't even crispy. The only thing that truly looked like it had a smoke ring was the brisket. The fries were anything but crispy, they were cold and soggy. It honestly felt like I was served food that was maybe 2-3 days old. Not a place that I'd recommend Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $30–40 Food: 1 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3

This is an award winning bbq place! And it deserves awards! We ordered a huge array and I have loved everything! Full slab rib plate juicy tender ribs with really sensational seasoning and light sauce. Love the house bbq sauce our order came with. Basket of cornbread really dense cornbread which is unusual but I like the taste and texture. THREE meats pulled pork melts like butter in your mouth so moist. 1/4 BBQ chicken leg nicely done Smoked sausage a nice option. Handcut fries I wouldn't say I'm a fan, these were too mushy for me. Large potato salad yes go for this all the way! It was a really nice side. Lots of onions though so if you don't like that well too bad. TWO meats Beef Brisket falling apart so delicate and good 1/4 BBQ chicken breast again nicely done Large Mac n Cheese a little spice hit I enjoyed but the kids didn't like it. Orders online and it was done right on time for pickup. Noticed a few seats inside. Dark interior vibes.

Easy to order online. Was ready ontime. Cornbread was delicious. Brisket was dry but super tender. Chicken breast was not as good as chicken leg. Pulled pork was good but also needs sauce which was fine as they gave a Ton of great BBQ sauces on the side. Ribs were 10/10 so tender, and flavorful. Overall super happy with the food, portion, and price.
