Cannot say enough about the brisket. If you know, you know. Outstanding food every visit.

My husband and MIL were just berated for having the audacity to be from out of town and ordering dinner. The woman who answered the phone yelled at and hung up on my MIL, then screamed at my husband for using curbside pickup without being “crippled enough.” Don’t bother calling them, they’ll apparently be very upset about getting your business.

Just passing through but lucky enough to find this place. Excellent BBQ with the fall off the bone ribs and brisket being our favorite. Excellent Mac and cheese side as well as corn niblets. Two types of sauces, sweet and tangy and both were good. Food came out very hot and ready to eat. Wish we lived closer as we would be regular customers.

We stopped here the Thursday before Labor Day weekend. We were on our way up to Rhode Island and wanted to stop here since it’s been a very long time when we last visited. As we walked in, we were greeted nicely at the counter and needed a few minutes to decide what we wanted. My partner chose the pulled chicken with a side of rice and beans, and that came with cornbread. I chose pulled pork with macaroni and cheese and baked beans and cornbread. We both asked for the sweeter sauce. The meat and all the sides except the macaroni and cheese were very good. The macaroni and cheese had absolutely zero flavor. It’s really not very hard to make tasty macaroni and cheese. You really should just take this off your menu. We will probably visit again in the future.

We had brisket, ribs, Mac n cheese, beans and it was all good! I really enjoyed the ribs with the sweet sauce. The cornbread is also such a staple.

The Burnt Ends where to die for! The best I have had! Many barbeque joints are on the dry side. These were perfectly cooked and the smokiness was so darn goooooood! The guy working there was super friendly as well! I don't live in the area, but if I did, I would by pounds of the burnt ends and more!

Even though we got our food to go, the service was amazing! They made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our food on the go. The burnt ends and pulled pork was great, also loves the corn bread and sweet potatoes. All of the sauces were delicious! The spicy peach was my absolute favorite. Highly recommend!

Decent BBQ for our area. I ordered a 2 meat combo.I ordered brisket, and burnt ends. I couldn't tell the which one was what though. (I kind of thought burnt ends were burnt to sort of melt the fat away. Both seemed pretty fatty.) But I am NOT a BBQ expert. So try it for yourself. OH YEAH... they have about 5 or 6 different BBQ sauces you can order. I tried peach today. It was quite good!

Worse ribs ever...a plate of fat...end rib was 95% fat...avoid! Not inexpensive. Willing to pay for good ribs...these were terrible..I said it was my first time there...they must have seen me as a sucker!
