The BBQ chicken sandwich was really good! We visited as return guests. Food was delicious, and service was great. This is the first BBQ place I have ever doubd decorated for a ski town.

For 3 people-120$. The BBQ meat is full of fat, more fat than meat,not good, and cold. Fries with garlic are delicious. But 40$ for one person is too much and it’s not worth it.

Good place. Seems family run which means the speed of service leaves a lot to be desired. But the food is quite good if a bit pricey for what it is. Notice the locals seem to eat here so don't think you'll do much better for the area.

Excellent brisket sandwich - just the right amount of sauce - very well done - options for more meat was also possible but not used. Clean, friendly, attentive service - will go again.

I don't know how people eat here. The brisket was cold and leathery. Couldn't even cut it with a knife. Totally inedible. I don't make bbq but if I made this on a let's try thing I wouldn't serve it The pulled pork sandwich was somewhat edible but barely. The fries were good. Don't go here. Oh yeah and my brisket plate was like 30 bucks.

Got the half rack of ribs which comes with 2 sides (I got potatoe salad and fried pickles) and corn bread with honey butter.The ribs were very dry and overcooked. The potatoes in the potatoe salad were only partially cooked through- the dressing itself was good but the raw potatoes made it very unpleasant to eat and we didn’t eat after our first bite. The fried pickles were good and the corn bread with honey butter was also good. I wouldn’t come back again. But most of the reviews mention the ribs “falling off the rack” so idk if this was on off Sunday afternoon. But they most certainly were not falling off the rack.
