As an amateur bbq/smoking guy, how does this place have a 3.9? I almost didn’t order based on the google reviews but something told me to give it a try. I ordered the brisket as well as hot links and both were fantastic.

I’ve been doing briskets myself and while they are fantastic, it’s a ton of work and candidly, I think this place taste better. The only thing I will say is the brisket was not strongly seasoned and I can see folks in that area wanting...
So I decided to finally try this place. Everything is Ala carte.
I ordered two slices of fatty brisket, four pork ribs and a hot link. With mild sauce with a touch of hot sauce added and two sides, Cole slaw and potato salad.

Orders the following for a total of $33.

Mac & cheese: 3/5 cheesy but lacks flavor

they put their foot in them greens

Potato salad: 5/5 very good!
